Ok let's take thinks line by line inline:

I think its too early for a framework level defintion of a
kernel - but I do think the repository stuff is heading in the
right direction to be general container-side facility along-side
framework and meta.



NP but Avalon should get there at some point. I will leave that up to the future. For now I need to move and get this embedding done. I'm getting anxious. The idea of firing up Merlin on the first InitialContext request to bring up Eve is haunting me ;-).


Me too!


This is a lot of babble for one email. I will try to break this down into understandable short and easy chunks. I know I have not done a good job in describing it. I will also try to have some diagrams showing the use cases and object interactions sequence charts. Once the documentation is complete the implementation will become very apparent. I already began an implementation but stopped myself to document it and get a consensus.

Yeah if you're thinking this effort needs to be kept in a separate
development branch, then you are right. I can also develop it within the sandbox.




Lets put it together in sandbox (because Steve is a CVS wimp).



Will do then let's suspend development for now on the trunk, and move a copy
of the just the repository group to the sandbox. You want me to do this or
are you there by now.



I'm a LSOAB. You do it!

Steve I know I've been taking a while here but I think its worth doing this right the first time. I don't want to come back to it and have to redesign it.



No problems here!

The factory handling side is a little fuzzy but I'm sure that will come
together. I'm more concerned about the question concerning dependency
criteria resolution. Do we use the POM directory or do we generate an
artefact. For the moment I'm leaning towards the generation of the
artefact from the POM.



We have no choice until the POM lives inside a database and we can access the database and query it through some line protocol like maybe hmmm LDAP!


LOL


Just for reference, I've been playing around with jelly based gernation of a ClassLoaderDirective class based on POM info. Its kind of cool - but that is some meta info missing. If I want to use the repository to lauch OpenIM - somewhere I need to be able to declare the containment dependency. This take me back to the topic of "what is an aplication".

Cheers, Steve.
