I've recently been working on porting Jetty to Google's mobile platform called Android.
It's early days still, but I've succeeded in running a minimal setup with a connector (I've tested both bio and nio connectors) and a simple Handler. If you'd like to take a look, then check out the code from the i-jetty project and build it (you'll need to execute the ant build script and then use Android's packaging tool or the Eclipse plugin).
Once you've built and deployed the i-jetty package to the emulator, find the "Manage Jetty" application, and select the "Start Jetty" button. Then you'll be able to select the Browser application and surf to http://127.0.0.1:8080 and hit the demo "Hello" Handler.
For the moment I've had to do a teeny hack to the servlet api classes, due to this bug in Android, but hopefully that will be fixed soon and I can revert the temporary patches.
Much work remains to be done, but I thought I'd give everyone early warning that this work was going on. Who knows, it might inspire someone to use Jetty to win the Android developer challenge?!
