+/**
+ * This library can create responses for SASL authentication for a given
+ * challenge and a given secret. This way of authentication is common for
+ * SMTP, POP3, IMAP and LDAP.
+ *
+ * SASL is one way strong encryption and therefore useful for authentication,
+ * but not for secret information transfer.
+ * It is possibly to prove with SASL to know a shared secret like a password.
+ * It is not possible with SASL to transfer any other information in an
+ * encrypted way. For that purpose OpenPGP or SSL are useful.
+ *
+ * Currently PLAIN (RFC 2595), LOGIN (not really a SASL mechanism, but
+ * used like that in IMAP and SMTP), CRAM-MD5 (RFC 2195) and
+ * DIGEST-MD5 (RFC 2831) authentication are supported.  PLAIN and
+ * LOGIN transmit the credentials in the clear (apart from a possible
+ * base64 encoding).
+ *
+ * For KDE 3.2, the API has been extended to allow transparent use of
+ * all currently supported SASL mechanisms. Example:
+ * \code
+ * KDESasl sasl( myUser, myPass, myProtocol );
+ * if ( !sasl.chooseMethod( myMechanismsSupportedByServer ) )
+ *   return false; // couldn't agree on a method
+ *
+ * int numResponses = 0;
+ * if ( sasl.clientStarts() ) { // check whether we're supposed to start the dialog
+ *   ++numResponses;
+ *   mySendAuthCommand( sasl.method(), sasl.getResponse() );
+ * } else {
+ *   mySendAuthCommand( sasl.method() );
+ * }
+ * for ( ; !sasl.dialogComplete( numResponses ) ; ++numResponses ) {
+ *   QByteArray challenge = myRecvChallenge();
+ *   mySendResponse( sasl.getResponse( challenge ) );
+ * }
+ * return myCheckSuccess();
+ * \endcode
