[DotGNU]GEASv2

[Asif Ali]

hello everyone,

been going through GNU EASv2 discussion forum logs and docs.. 
EASv1 used corba..an absolute technologies. The authors had 
highlighed the following goals

Must be GPL and built with truly free tools.
Allow methods (logic) to execute on appserver instead of on client 
and/or database.
Must be reasonably stable.
Must be reasonably secure.
Must be easily maintained.
Must be usable by business class users (not just programmers).
Must perform reasonably with large quantities of users and/or 
data.
Must be easy to configure and adaptable without downtime.
Communicate with an number of backend datastorage.
Must run on multiple OSes and Architectures.
Communitate via a multitude of different tranportaion methods.
Methods support a number of different languages. (lesser goal)

Agreeing to the above points..i feel the challenge is to support 
the two track approach and loosely coupled objects's performance 
tuning and transactions over distributed architectures..
hmm amostly i think we would need to rethink on the overall 
strategy of the App server..because the current appserver GEASv1 
(GNU EAS) fits nowehere close to what we might require...nd unless 
goals arent well defined.. ..GEASv2 might also might turn out to 
be a disaster..
Your comments upon this please
regards
ASif
