Eclipse Day at the Googleplex: Distributed OSGi in the Eclipse Runtime Project

As part of the OSGi 4.2 specification, there is a new spec (RFC119) intended to standardize the distribution and network discovery of OSGi services. The ECF project (http://www.eclipse.org/ecf) has implemented the latest available draft and this is included in the Galileo release. Scott will present his open source, open protocol, open provider approach to implementing this spec, show example applications and discuss how others may extend and/or replace the implementation. He'll also touch on some basic issues of distributed services, such as network transparency and 'leaky' abstractions like synchronous remote procedure call (RPC).
