title: How to maintain users sessions in DropWizard 1.0.x
body: <p>The correct way to configure and (de)reference HttpSessions in DropWizard 1.0.x is not documented. How is it done?</p>
  
  <p>Versions 0.7.x and 0.8.x are covered by <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19970591/how-to-maintain-user-sessions-in-dropwizard">this question</a>, but it seems like things have changed as some of the classes referenced are not part of 1.0.x afaict.</p>
