I would think that one would deploy the appropriate downloadable jars with their service. Perhaps I'm missing something, but I don't see a problem. If a client is running and you deploy a new version of the service (with associated downloadable jars), the old proxy should fail, the client downloads a new proxy and continues on. That's the Jini way. Or do I misunderstand the question?
