Ideally I'd like to see us have a very small qpid-common that is basically our interfaces between protocol and transports. Then we can drop in OSGi-fied protocol jars and transports such as Mina/Growl or our own transport. I'm hoping to find time to write up the push to modularise the java broker. Just not enought time right now. >> Emmanuel Bourg >> >> > > > > -- > Regards, > > Rajith Attapattu > Red Hat > http://rajith.2rlabs.com/ > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > Apache Qpid - AMQP Messaging Implementation > Project: http://qpid.apache.org > Use/Interact: mailto:dev-subscr...@qpid.apache.org > > -- Martin Ritchie --------------------------------------------------------------------- Apache Qpid - AMQP Messaging Implementation Project: http://qpid.apache.org Use/Interact: mailto:dev-subscr...@qpid.apache.org
