Given that we've already re-invented e-mail and blogs and social "where are you and will you be my friend" media stuff, maybe it is now time to re-invent rpc and its portmapper (I think nowadays people prefer to talk about "service discovery" and "request brokers"). You simply direct your request and payload to a central server, which knows (or finds out) which instance of a given service is available to handle your request, and passes it on. I think xapi already does something like it, only for xapi requests of course but why not extend it ;-) Bye Frederik -- Frederik Ramm ## eMail [email protected] ## N49°00'09" E008°23'33" _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
