Ok, if you refresh from cvs, there is a zip file called 
AxisInternalMessageExchange.zip in xml-axis/proposals that contains the 
updated interfaces (as per our discussion on IRC today and the raw 
prototype implementation.  The impl is more a test to prove the concepts 
and is not currently integrated into Axis.  In the zip, you will find a 
class called org.apache.axis.ime.internal.test.TestProvider.  This class 
implements the basic behavior that the Axis Engine and Transports will 
need to provide.  It needs quite a bit of cleaning up, simplifying and 
tweaking, but you'll get the basic idea.

Significant things to point out:

1. The event model was changed as discussed on IRC
2. Message receive operations are now gated with MessageWorkers as 
discussed on IRC
3. The MessageWorkerGroup class needs a lot of work to simplify and 
automate the thread management.  The goal is to make threading details as 
transparent as possible

Enjoy and let the bashing begin :-)

(btw, regarding "prior art", the Queued channel model implemented in the 
prototype was inspired by David Lea's util.concurrent library ....

)....
