Re: [paho-dev] Virgo MQTT server?

This was discussed both at EclipseCon, and on the M2M-IWG call this week. It certainly makes a lot of sense, given companies like Hitachi and Ford building IoT type solutions with OSGi runtimes.

Neil Bartlett asked about an OSGi implementation of a server at EclipseCon and (I think) may have started work on something - so it would be worth checking with him.

I think Wes from Eurotech may also have done some work in the same space but if so, I've no idea whether they have any thoughts towards releasing their code to Paho. I'll point him at this discussion in case he's not looking at the list.

This would take the form of service publications with the appropriate service properties to make methods available as Gogo shell commands. Clearly these could be separated out into their own trivial "shell binding" bundle to avoid any dependencies to Gogo among the (main) Paho bundles. I don't think there would need to be any other dependencies to Virgo.
