I do hope the spaces project can find a way to use some of the ECF APIs.
We've already developed APIs needed for sharing arbitrary resources
(e.g. asynch file transfer, serialized object/model replication,
authentication/access control to a distributed group, support for
pluggable transport protocols, unique identifiers within Namespaces [and
extension point for introducing new namespaces], exstensible clients for
IRC/XMPP/Yahoo/MSN IM/Chat, bulletin board API w NNTP support, new Skype
provider (for IM/chat/skype VOIP), remote workspace control, shared
editors, etc).
Also, the Equinox provisioning incubator project
http://www.eclipse.org/equinox/incubator/provisioning/
is using ECF's asynch file transfer API...because it has pluggable
protocol support (ftp, bittorrent, http/https, etc) and runs on nearly
all execution environments (CDC 1.0/Foundation 1.0).
It would be quite a waste if the spaces project were to redevelop these
or introduce new mechanisms doing the same things.
Please let us know if we can help. ecf-dev@eclipse.org or me at
slewis@composent.com.
