I ported over the .net stuff there recently from v2, to deal with
deficiencies in some of the java-support net classes.  I actually
initially wanted to put them in java-support's net package.  The only
reason I didn't was because I was trying to stick to the letter of the
versioning and branching policy (Chad's), which would dictate that
adding new API's means we need to branch the current java-support
release, etc.  I just wasn't feeling like doing all that at the time,
but did have plans to eventually move that code there.  I've since
realized we've probably been violating that otherwise.  Since we can
branch from a historical revision anyway, we should probably just go
ahead and move that stuff to java-support.

The criteria stuff: to me clearly goes in java-support's .resolver
package.  I think the only reason Chad didn't move it was b/c he thought
that code was going away, which is why he marked as deprecated.  I
didn't and don't have any current plans to get rid of it, so I'd say
also move that stuff to java-support's .resolver package.

My $.02.
