[riena-dev] ECF remote services provider based upon Riena

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings,

I would like to create an ECF remote services provider, based upon 
Riena.  We have recently done this with j-SLP and r-OSGi (i.e. created 
ECF discovery API and remote services API providers), and I think as 
some of us have discussed on the newsgroup, it would be helpful to both 
projects to also do this with the relevant communication parts of Riena.

If any of the Riena team would like to work on this together, I/we would 
welcome this, of course.

One benefit for Riena of this work would be the immediate availability 
of some examples/other apps using the ECF discovery and remote services 
APIs.e.g. 
http://eclipseecf.blogspot.com/2008/02/discovery-and-access-for-remote-osgi.html 
and others.

To make this workable, though, I have some mundane requests:  Are there 
plans for creating a project set file for the core/communication bundles 
of Riena?  Are/will there be javadocs for the bundles now in the riena 
CVS area?   Are there library dependencies that are also needed to build 
the Riena bundles? 

Thanks,

Scott
