If you do, please look at the "Service provider" API in the JAR
specification:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/jar/jar.html#Service%20Provider
Not quite sure how to use it, but something like calling the file
META-INF/services.xml would probably be a good idea.

Ah well, it's on track now at least :-)

Sounds very very nice :-)

Yes, agree.
Now, couple that with a Jini-based deploy interface and you have
something really interesting.
