  Description     : scalable comet (server push) implementation for the web

 CometD is a scalable HTTP-based event routing bus that uses a Ajax
 Push technology pattern known as Comet. The term 'Comet' was coined
 by Alex Russell in his post Comet: Low Latency Data for the Browser.
 .
 CometD is a Dojo Foundation project to provide implementations of
 the Bayeux protocol in javascript, java, perl, python and other
 languages. Other organizations (eg. Sun, IBM and BEA) also have
 implementations of Bayeux that are not strictly part of the CometD
 project, but where possible they are linked to from this site.

Package is needed by beaker-notebook (bug#795980) and the ShowMeBox
project: https://wiki.debian.org/ShowMeBox - if interested, see also
https://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/showme-devel/2015-October/000050.html

Cc'ing Debian Java Maintainers in the hope they will pick this up.
