Have no proof of concept in mind, but... Have you tried using remoting to cross the domains using interfaces defined in the third assembly for both end points and ensuring that both sides inherit from MarshalByRef? (to use events but avoid loading of the respective assemblies in the respective appdomains)
Otherwise you might take a look at loosely coupled event models. -----Original Message----- From: Discussion of advanced .NET topics.
