Hi Maurice,

Rephrasing the question, does this bring extended functionality to other
protobuf supported languages as well?
Short answer: yes...because grpc supports other languages.
Longer answer: Because ECF is an impl of OSGi RS/RSA spec the work
I've done on this new distribution provider is first focused on
Java/OSGi (e.g. adding a protobuf plugin that generates a Java service
interface class from proto file service spec).
However, since we are talking about inter-process, and grpc can create
servers or clients in other languages, and because all communication is
based on same (gprotouf+grpc) wire protocol and serialization, then it
is possible to have either
Java/OSGi Remote Services consumer/client -> Other lang server
or
Other lang consumer/client -> Java/OSGi Remote Services server
If there is interest in this I (or others) could produce an example, but
since I've just finished the first cut of this distribution provider
(for Java/OSGi on both ends) I have not yet had a chance to work on
these multi-language use cases.
