this is closely related to the container stuff and namespaces. strongly influenced by how distributed the whole system is supposed to be. you could choose a normal message queue approach but that might be a bit too simple. maybe i'm aiming too high. but i dont just want to rewrite product xyz or java or whatever. and there is always compatibility. really big changes in the api/constraints/behaviour does not help users and developers. torvald
