Personnally, I now always use a mix of retrofit and Rx instead, RS has sailed a long way home and yes, the latest constraints in android O don't make it easy for RS at all, it's probably the last nail in its coffin. @stephanenicolas\n\nThx to all RS users for your warm support, it's been a pleasure to ofer this library to the community. Thx to @rciovati too for his important contributions to RS !\n\n--------\n\nRoboSpice is a modular android library that makes writing asynchronous network requests *easy* !\n\nTo learn more about RoboSpice in 30 seconds, try [this infographics]\n(https://raw.github.com/stephanenicolas/robospice/master/gfx/RoboSpice-InfoGraphics.png).\n\nIf you want to start using RoboSpice right now, jump to the [Wiki](https://github.com/stephanenicolas/robospice/wiki) or the [samples](https://github.com/octo-online/RoboSpice-samples).\n\nThe [Wiki](https://github.com/stephanenicolas/robospice/wiki) has a fully detailed section to quickly setup you up whether you use Gradle, Maven or ant/eclipse.\n\n\nMain features of RoboSpice\n--------------------------\n* supports Android starting *_from_ SDK version 8 (Froyo / 2.2.x)* \n* executes network requests **asynchronously** (in a background AndroidService)\n* supports **REST** out of the box (using [Spring Android](http://www.springsource.org/spring-android) or [Google Http Client](http://code.google.com/p/google-http-java-client) or [Retrofit](https://github.com/square/retrofit)).\n* is strongly typed ! You query webservices using **POJOs** as parameters and you get **POJOs** as request results.\n* enforces no constraints neither on POJOs used for requests nor on Activity classes you use in your projects\n* **caches results** in Json with both [Jackson](http://jackson.codehaus.org/) or [Jackson2](http://wiki.fasterxml.com/JacksonRelease20) or [Gson](http://code.google.com/p/google-gson/),\nor [Xml](http://simple.sourceforge.net/), or flat text files, or binary files, even using [ORM Lite](http://ormlite.com/sqlite_java_android_orm.shtml) (still in beta)\n* notifies your activities (or any other context) of the result of the network request **with respect to their lifecycles**.\n* notifies your activities (or any other context) on the **UI Thread**\n* **no memory leaks** at all, like Android Loaders, unlike Android AsyncTasks\n* uses a simple but **robust** exception handling model\n* supports **multi-threading** of request executions\n* is **stable**, **efficient** and designed to respect Android philosophy\n* supports request **cancelling**, request **priorization** and requests  **aggregation**\n* supports aggregation of different web services\n* is a full featured replacement for long \u0001running AsyncTasks even if they are not related to networking.\n* is **open source** ;) \n* and **tested** (more than 200 tests)\n\nRoboSpice is [under Quality control on Sonar's Nemo instance](http://nemo.sonarsource.org/dashboard/index/504442). Thanks to Sonar Source.\n\nTo learn more about RoboSpice\n-----------------------------\n\nTo learn more, look at the presentation slides we created for DroidCon UK 2012, they are available in the [download section](https://github.com/stephanenicolas/robospice/downloads).\n\nA few links : \n\n* Browse RoboSpice's full documentation on [the Wiki](https://github.com/stephanenicolas/robospice/wiki).\n* [Javadocs](http://stephanenicolas.github.com/robospice/site/latest/apidocs/index.html).\n* [Maven site](http://stephanenicolas.github.com/robospice/site/latest/index.html).\n* [Discussion group on google](https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/robospice).\n* [Stack Over Flow questions about RoboSpice](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/robospice)\n\nExample code \u0026 demo\n-------------------\n\nThe RoboSpice team proposes a lot of sample applications in [their own GitHub repo](https://github.com/octo-online/RoboSpice-samples).\n\nWe also propose a few demo : \n* [RoboSpice Motivations](http://goo.gl/pzqH4) : a pedagogical app that explains the motivations behind RoboSpice.\n* and [a demo that illustrates non-network related requests (offline)](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.octo.android.robospice.sample.offline#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDIxMiwiY29tLm9jdG8uYW5kcm9pZC5yb2Jvc3BpY2Uuc2FtcGxlLm9mZmxpbmUiXQ..).\n\nA project initiated by Octo Technology \n-------------------------------------\n\n![Octo Technology logo](https://raw.github.com/stephanenicolas/robospice/master/gfx/octo-ascii-logo-blue.png)\n\nRoboSpice has been incubated at [Octo Technology](http://www.octo.com/en), a french company based in Paris, focused on software design and quality. \nIt offers its employees to work part time on Research \u0026 Development projects.
