Introducing Open Source Newton Project - Document Driven, Dynamic Component Framework

Apologies for the unsolicited email however I thought that the Felix
community may be interested in our open source project Newton which provides
a dynamic distributed component based framework based on OSGi, SCA and Jini.


 

Agent based, Document driven and declarative in nature, it offers a simple
approach to managing applications and compute resources across a distributed
environment made up of heterogeneous commodity servers. Offering
capabilities including self-assembling, self-managing, self-scaling and
self-healing Infiniflow is able to simplify the ongoing operation of
distributed systems.

 

The framework is available in open source as the Newton project at
www.codecauldron.org <http://www.codecauldron.org/>  and under commercial
license as Infiniflow DSF www.paremus.com <http://www.paremus.com/> . 

 

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.

 

Regards

Mike

FWIW, that statement is not compatible with the GPL. You are not allowed to 
make non-commercial restrictions to the GPL, and as long as I am prepared to 
use it under the terms and conditions of the GPL, I can't be forced to use it 
in non-commercial or production environments.

So either that statement is an incorrect claim, OR it is not licensed under 
GPL.

Nevertheless, the technology is real cool, and wish I had some time to look 
more into it...

Cheers
Niclas

I saw this stuff at JavaOne and it looked cool.  Mike, what is the open
