Scott has been fooling around with designing a remote OSGI services API.

Bslow are some ideas for an IRemoteServiceContainer...an adapter interface for registering, finding, and using remote service references.

See also the newly checked in (7/17/2006) org.eclipse.ecf.remoteservice plugin (see ecf dev resources to get CVS access to the code (in plugins module).

See also this project set (for anonymous CVS access...ECF committers should access via extssh protocol for read/write access):
