For what it's worth, I've begun a clean-room implementation of Surrogate
starting from the spec, although I make no promises as to how quickly it
will proceed. I'm curious - should I start committing with the
in-progress code or wait til there's something approaching a working
module? Personally I'd prefer committing as we go, since (a) I'm much
happier with code in version control and (b) people might be able to
give opinions and assistance.
I'd like to help, and I think I'm qualified in terms of having never
looked at any code implementing the Jini Surrogate Architecture.
There is one possible issue. From 1996 until 2002 I worked for Sun
Microsystems. Prior to that, I worked for Cray Research on developments
using Sun processors, Solaris etc., with strong collaboration with Sun.
I signed Sun confidentiality agreements in both capacities.
I have never held any Java-related confidential information except for
advance briefings on development directions whose contents are now
totally out of date.
Presumably, Apache has precedents for former Sun employees. Any pointers
to web pages etc.?
