 * This interface is a marker interface to be used to represent both an

 * strategy.
 * 
 * In example, a {@code RemoteCredentials} object created to represent an
 * authentication strategy based on user name and password, may encapsulate the
 * user name and password to enable this authentication strategy when a session
 * to the repository is created.
 * 
 * To create instances of this interface, take a look at the methods defined in
 * {@link RemoteRepository}.
