 **********
 
 SASL is short for “Simple Authentication and Security Layer”.  This
 standard is documented in RFC2222.  It provides a simple method for
 adding authentication support to various application protocols.
 
    The toplevel interface of this library is inspired by Java SASL
 Application Program Interface.  It defines an abstraction over a series
 of authentication mechanism drivers (Back end drivers).
 
    Back end drivers are designed to be close as possible to the
 authentication mechanism.  You can access the additional configuration
 information anywhere from the implementation.
