Hi,

The past week I have battled with shuffling of data between sources, such as doing restores of backups and similar. I came to realize that there was a pattern behind how these things work, and created a simple API that allows inputs and outputs to be encapsulated and easily used in different scenarios. I've written a longish blogpost that outlines the thinking, and potential usage:
http://www.jroller.com/rickard/entry/a_generic_input_output_api

If you this solution looks ok, I'd like to introduce it wherever it makes sense in our API/SPI, to get a streamlined approach to data and object shuffling.

To check it out, update qi4j-core 1.3-SNAPSHOT. It's in the org.qi4j.api.io package, with tests.

Comments are more than welcome!

regards, Rickard
