Re: [riena-dev] OSGI 4.2 Distributed Services

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I forgot to mention...if people are interested in 
examining/getting/contributing to the ongoing work in this area (which 
is most welcome, of course)...see

/cvsroot/rt
modules:  org.eclipse.ecf/framework/bundles
projects:  org.eclipse.ecf.osgi.services, o.e.e.osgi.services.discovery, 
o.e.e.osgi.services.distribution
module (junit tests):  org.eclipse.ecf/tests/bundles
projects:  org.eclipse.ecf.tests.osgi.services.discovery, 
o.e.e.t.osgi.services.distribution

There is a lot of work going on right now/this week WRT the testing 
modules in particular, as we are now working on an extensible test suite 
that allows discovery and remote service providers to test their 
implementations (as well as test the RFC 119 impl itself).
