Review request for wave, Ali Lown and Yuri Zelikov.


Changes
-------

Fixed build and classpath with correct jar destination (codegen vs runtime).


Repository: wave


Description
-------

This patch add a new configuration option to select between different profile 
fetchers:
- the current one (based in Gravatar)
- a new one called "Initials" inspired in the defaults avatars of Android Gmail 
App, see, for instance:
http://www.androidcentral.com/sites/androidcentral.com/files/postimages/444537/new-gmail-2.png
so you can choose what profile fetcher to use (gravatar or initials) in your 
wave server.

The goal is to identify the participant with its initial (and random colors) 
and also to avoid the use of external avatar services if you don't want to:

It uses a new library I'm working on, that also will allow to composite several 
avatars (if we are interested in use it in the future for mobile version, etc):

and some more examples of the lib:

I've tested the server with the two profile fetchers.
