Yes, as I mention earlier; JavaSpaces is perfect for this kind of problems and
solves the things I point out. But for someone who is 'narrowed down' to one
way of thinking, start looking at Jini/JavaSpaces is a big step for "no
apparent benefits". So, I think it is important to show "Yes, the obvious
solution is simple, but No, you will have a lot of problems to solve and it
will be a *long* time before you got it all right. So, take a look at Jini
first..."
