> Currently we use a lot of boiler plate code to read protocol properties specified in configuration file. We can eliminate this unnecessary code by using annotations and a bit of Java reflection that would assign protocol property values to matching Java fields, give warnings for deprecated properties, and so on. We should:
> 1) introduce @ProtocolProperty annotation 
> 2) annotate Protocol fields that are properties 
> 3) test framework
> 4) remove all current boilerplate code
