| Re: [ecf-dev] ECF 3.11.0 ... or 3.10.2 | 
Hi Folks,
Without immediate objection, I'm going to schedule an ECF minor release 
(3.11.0) for Monday, September 28.  Unless others have contributions and 
let me know in the next few days, it will consist of the new remote 
service distribution provider as described below.
Thanks,
Scott

Hi Folks,
I've  been working on a few additions to ECF remote services, with the 
primary goal of making it easier for others to create and use new 
Remote Service distribution providers (I would also like to make it 
easier for people to create their own discovery providers, but for the 
moment I am focusing on distribution providers).
To this end, what I've done so far is to create a new package in 
org.eclipse.ecf.remoteservices API bundle:
package:  org.eclipse.ecf.remoteservice.provider [1]
And added a new service interface: IRemoteServiceDistributionProvider, 
an abstract impl class (RemoteServiceDistributionProvider and 
Builder), and a helper class for providers that use adapters 
(AdapterConfig).
I've been trying this new API out with two new distribution providers 
that I've been working on:
JaxRS/Jersey[2]
Hazelcast [3]
What one can now do is use the whiteboard pattern to register an impl 
of IRemoteServiceDistributionProvider, and this do the ECF setup to 
allow for the use of that provider by ECF's RSA implementation.
[2a] and [3a] show two example uses of this provider API for the 
Jersey and Hazelcast providers.  As you can see, these create an 
instance of IRemoteServiceDistributionProvider, and register that 
instance as a IRemoteServiceDistributionProvider.  That's all that's 
needed.
Just to be clear, I can/could easily do this with DS doing the service 
registration, and may yet do that.  I want to have both programmatic 
and DS examples.
Any thoughts/comments/criticisms appreciated.
I would like to release this provider API as part of some ECF 
release.  Technically, we need to have a minor release (including 
review) with new API, although I might ask if this could be an 
exception to the minor release process...or maybe expedited/simplified 
in some way, since this is totally new ECF-specific API, and it's very 
small.
In any event, I wanted to find out what other committers and/or 
contributors were thinking in terms of planning for a minor release.   
It might be good to shoot for the third or fourth weeks in Sept...e.g. 
21 or 28.   Do others have additions that they would like to include 
in 3.11.0 (or 3.10.2, depending upon what happens WRT the review, 
etc)?  For example, the new Zookeeper version in Orbit?   Other things?
Thanks,
Scott
