Why would you do that? Michael, you keep saying this without illustrating which parts of Jini JavaSpaces shouldn't use. Can you describe the type structure that you would convert all the things in the JavaSpace interface API to which would allow a new JavaSpace with your described independence work in an environment with applications that use the current JavaSpace? That might help us understand the path of adoption into existing application bases. Gregg Wonderly
