Re: [science-iwg] Triquetrum Meeting Notes
|
Hi Scott,
I thought I saw another face popping up suddenly! ;-)
Thank you for your interest, and for your offer to support the science
projects.
ECF is a project that I've been following since a long time, and it
would be great to provide an integration.
From my personal perspective also your two other topics are of interest :
- we do have projects with Passerelle that are not fully committed to OSGi.
Passerelle core works fine in there as long as we don't start using
modules and/or actors that depend on OSGi services.
Your work seems to be an alternative to setting up Java serviceproviders?
- I know that we have already some experienced eclipse project leads in
the science group, but I'm certainly not one of them ;-)
So I might start asking for information once we start setting up a
repository, builds etc!
thanks again,
erwin

Hi Folks,
I was the person that dropped in toward the end of the conference this
morning. My apologies for not introducing myself on the conference
but I didn't wish to barge in. I'm Scott Lewis [0], project lead of
the ECF project [1].
My intention for joining was to see if I could be of some help with
supporting the science wg projects.
First, it appears from the notes (OSGi and 'service layer') that ECF
might be of use for the integration of science wg projects.
Specifically, ECF implements the OSGi R6 Remote Services (RS)
specification [2], and RS may be useful given the science wg's use
of/needs for inter-process communication (e.g. client-server). Our
impl of the RS specification is protocol/transport agnostic, allowing
a OSGi-standardized separation between the service layer and the
communications/transport layer. Additionally, we already have
multiple distribution and discovery provider implementations, and it's
quite easy to create/use new providers [3]. Finally, there are orgs
that are developing products on ECF RS.
Another area of potential interest is the work I've recently done on
making it possible to use 'java-only' OSGi services (and remote
services)...i.e. the ability to use OSGi services without running an
entire OSGi framework. I'm working on creating a tutorial as we
speak, but there is a note describing the work here [4].
I also wanted to a willingness to help/support the science working
group projects, specifically with the use of ECF, of course, but also
just as an experienced > 10 years) mature EF project lead. So please
let me know if I can be of help...either with
technical/usage/integration help or with EF dev process, release
engineering, IP, conventions, etc.
Scott
