Hi Virgoers,
In the Virgo proposal [1], the ECF project is listed as a potential integration target...at least partially because with our upcoming 3.2 release [2] we have a full, multi-transport implementation of the OSGi 4.2 remote services standard [2] that can be easily integrated with Virgo/Spring framework.
An ECF community member and Spring user (Angelo Zerr) has created a very small/simple bundle that accomplishes this integration between ECF remote services and Spring. The associated bug is here [4]. He is willing to contribute this bundle to either ECF or the Virgo project under the EPL.
Which project/where to contribute this bundle is an open question, though, as it has dependencies on both ECF core code, and Spring (for...e.g. FactoryBean, InitializingBean, DisposableBean among other interfaces). FWIW, whatever works out the easiest for all involved is ok with me.
I don't know what the plans are for Virgo package names...we can easily refactor this integration code to use whatever is decided once Virgo gets going.
But in any event, I wanted to let the Virgo community know that this work has been started/done. I think it makes a great example of a nice/simple/standards-based integration and a terrific example of open, cross-project collaboration and community-based contribution.
