Subject: Re: Visualizing JreLite
There will be certified (well known servers), these are precoded into
the JRELite bootstrap....
If a third party wants to add a well known server, they need to ask....
(now
my
imagination is taking off ha ha) google can allocate
a specific site (I have a feeling they will be interested ;) for the
JreLite
bootstrap... if someone wants to add a server, they have to
ask IGI (IntelGoogleIbm) for permission for it to be added.... this means
that if a server fails, the JreLiteBoot or JVM Resolver
can retry a few servers before giving up....
(now my imagination is flying) ... the servers contain PURE JAVA
classes...
BUT, if an organization wants to add more API
to the server... say the ability for a programmer to program 911 calls
into
their programs... then IGI has to approve them
.... an so the world is safe ;)
they approve what? do "they" need to approve each binary release of
each package? make sure there are no viruses, troyans, spyware?
Only if someone wanted to append to or change the API, would that become an
issue.
Thats not so strange... phone Sun up and ask them to include your game Api
in the JRE... you'll get the picture.
The guardians of the API, have to be there... but remember, these servers do
NOT hold your application, they holding
the core API.... they have to be there, they (IGI) spend millions setting up
servers, and so they get the priviledge of guarding the API..
So that someone cant make System.out... format a hardrive... so yes at that
level they guarding everything...
But dont think the screwed up symbian model that makes people pay for
applications, you know, if they dont sign, it doesnt run.
In this scheme... the application is free, and it can be ANYWHERE.... its
*not* on the delivery servers, "java" is.
Except this will be J(V8 Turbo Charged)SE ;)
