This is really about runtime-to-runtime cooperation - which
implementation types a runtime can support would be something that
was input to the decision making process (about what to run where).
So, for example, a Ruby component could be allocated any C++ or Java
runtime that supported that implementation type.
I think we should use standard protocols for this communication, such
as Bonjour, UPNP, JXTA etc. so that they can easily be supported by
runtimes implemented in different languages. I.e we don't want a
protocol that relies on synchronizing native Java/C++/... objects.
Different domains may prefer different protocols (for networking
reasons) so we want this to be plugable.
Having said that, I wasn't planning on working on a non-Java version
but if you see something that would be hard/impossible to implement
in the C++ runtime please shout :-)
