Well, Rickard recently added "isAvailable()" and Availability in Qi4j, but there is no mechanism in Qi4j to make Qi4j services available and not. This is about external-to-Qi4j services that may or may not support Availability, such as OSGi does. So, when I said "available", I meant that 'something' sees the Qi4j Service and exports it into the non-Qi4j environment, such as OSGi and CXF JAX-WS (I need both at work). The idea is that if the developer of a domain model just follow a handful of rules, such as "only use ValueComposites (serialized by value) and Entity (serialized identity) in Service methods" the mechanics of JAX-WS is taken care of automatically. Well that is the goal anyway.
