Sunil,

JCS does not support XML based config. It looks like there is a transmission type for
the lateral cache that uses XMLRPC, but no xml based configuration.

I think that JMX enabling some parts of JCS could be really useful. Some of what JMX
would do is already handled by the admin servlet, but a JMX enabled system would be
nice as it would allow you to use your existing management tools to manage JCS.  As
you said the ability to add a server at runtime and maybe have it added to a remote
cacheing policy would be very useful. Also the ability to modify the configuration of
a cache region at runtime. Such things as simple as modifying the MaxObjects of a
region would greatly assist in tuning the cache for a particular system.
