Hi everyone, In the OSGi Alliance we're currently working on defining 'Asynchronous Distributed OSGi' in various forms and what that might look like. Currently the work is divided up into three areas: * Bringing JMS to OSGi * Message Driven Components * Asynchronous Services We're really at the requirements gathering stage right now...
In the mean time I'm looking for a place where we can do some experimentation and collaboration in the area in order to get a better understanding of these problems and potential solutions. I would love to start a component in Aries for this purpose. The three areas identified above are more or less orthogonal, but I can see many cases where they are combined, so at least initially I think a single experimentation area for them would be good. Then, when the dust settles a bit we might extract a number of independent components... Anyway, that's at least how I think we could do it, but I would also have no big issues with three separate experimentation areas (or maybe three submodules of an async top-level module would be a middle ground). Anyway, if people think this is a good idea I can start putting some of the structure in the build system over the coming few days... Best regards, David
