yes, I totally agree with writting it as platform independent as possible.  And considering that you, Chris and Grant know Java, that's probably where we should be heading.  I'll definately get out of the way of the conversation there.

My level of expertise in this arena is in usage of FCS.  I've used it pretty extensively on some gigs - everyting from twitch based games to multi-video chat apps etc.

as for taking this to the right discussion place, I'm going to go ahead and get that set up with Aral right now.

I'll post email list details when I get them ,

Thanks guys!  this would be a HUGE boost in the OS world if we can stick to it and see it through ;)

I think you mean JBoss and/or Spring, theres some fire out there on the

Anyway, im willing to chip in with what i can, i spend a lot of time
doing back end java work (with spring :), but would like to see the
effort being as language / platform neutral as possible.

Obviously it will head towards where the expertise lies, but I think it
would be useful to provide a 'reference implementation' in whatever
language, but architected to make it easily portable.

Sounds like youre a good architecture man Grant. :)

I guess the major architectural issues of the component parts of FCS
will have been dealt with to a large degree, so looking at existing
architectures and implementations for inspirations may be a good start.

Really, the work on reverse engineering the protocol could be done in
parallel with the design of the system itself. We know *what* the system
should do, just not exactly how it talks to the player.

like i said, i'll offer what i can, ideas, research, design, code etc.
