DDR Simple API - newHttpEvidence(Map<String,String>)

Regarding the method

Service.newHttpEvidence(Map<String,String>)

this method will force implementations of the DDR Simple API to execute on Java 1.5 and above.
This fact will avoid existing solutions deployed on Java 1.4 to migrate to the DDR Simple API. As sometimes in production environments it is difficult to do a migration due to dependencies with legacy applications, sys admin policies, etc, etc, this seems to be a critical issue. That's because we are requesting to change it to newHttpEvidence(Map)

Proposed Amendment

+ Change Service.newHttpEvidence(Map<String,String>) to Service.newHttpEvidence(Map)

In the description of the method it should be said that implementations must iterate over the keys of the map calling the toString method to obtain the header names, and must iterate over the values of the map calling the toString method to obtain the header values.
