+	  Issue208
+
+	* artifact-database/doc/example-conf/conf.xml: Added a section to configure
+	  a secret string used to identify artifact imports for security reason.
+	  Incoming artifact imports need to be identified with this secret, otherwise
+	  the import should be blocked.
+	  Xpath for this secret: '/artifact-database/export-secret/text()'
+
+	* artifact-database/src/main/java/de/intevation/artifactdatabase/FactoryBootstrap.java:
+	  New attribute 'exportSecret' and some code to read the secret from
+	  configuration while application startup.
+
+	* artifact-database/pom.xml: Added Apache Commons Codec library used to
+	  encode/decode artifact data.
+
+	* artifact-database/src/main/java/de/intevation/artifactdatabase/StringUtils.java:
+	  New utilities class for frequently used string operations.
+
+	* artifact-database/src/main/java/de/intevation/artifactdatabase/ArtifactDatabaseImpl.java:
+	  Added some methods for exporting artifacts as xml documents. The data part
+	  is base64 encoded. A secret key is used while encoding this data to verify
+	  artifact imports, later.
+
+	* artifact-database/src/main/java/de/intevation/artifactdatabase/Backend.java:
+	  Added an artifact loader interface used to deserialize artifacts. 
+	  getArtifact() implements such an ArtifactLoader to return
+	  PersistentArtifacts.
+
+	* artifact-database/src/main/java/de/intevation/artifactdatabase/rest/ExportResource.java:
+	  New. ServerResource to export artifacts (innerGet). This resource is
+	  available under "/export/{uuid}" via HTTP-GET request and returns an
+	  artifact specified by uuid as xml document.
+
+	* artifact-database/src/main/java/de/intevation/artifactdatabase/rest/RestApp.java:
+	  Register ExportResource to webserver.
+
+	* artifacts/src/main/java/de/intevation/artifacts/ArtifactDatabase.java:
+	  Added method to export artifacts.
+
+	* artifact-database/src/main/java/de/intevation/artifactdatabase/App.java:
+	  Reset bootstrap after application startup.
