To make the naming more difficult, AltRMI is NOT solely about 'remote' invocations. Check out the pipe transport + DirectMarshalled ones . [http://jakarta.apache.org/avalon/excalibur/altrmi/transports.html]
So, a name suggesting a transport agnostic library to connect modules might do justice to what Altrmi is (will be). So a potential suggestion could be: TAMI - Transport Agnostic Method Invoker. .Vinay. --- Mauro Talevi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Noel J.
