Add an intuitive call for creating a new item in a given domain

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I've been trying to figure out how to create an item in a SimpleDB domain, 
and it eluded me, until I found this thread in the Typica forums:

http://groups.google.com/group/typica/browse_thread/thread/e19c89b63b21ac61
/3e7be075b30aa67b?lnk=gst&q=simpledb#3e7be075b30aa67b

In the thread, David K says this is a bit deceiving, and he's right ;)  
Would it be possible to add a simple function or two to the domain class, 
like so:

public Item add(final List<ItemAttribute> attributes) { ... }

It would make learning the library just a bit easier.  Thanks for a great 
library, we've been using it in production for months now, and it's 
awesome.

Thanks for the kind words. Last spring, I started a major re-factor of the 
SimpleDB support. So much so, that is 
is in an entirely new package. See 
http://code.google.com/p/typica/source/browse/#svn/branches/newsdb/java/com/xero
x/amazonws/simpledb

I'd be happy for input.

Cool!  I will test it out when I get a chance, and provide feedback on here 
once I 
figure it out ;)

After this release, I'm going to look at the SimpleDB re-factor again. I want 
to get that 
released.
