A friend told me about this. He's very excited by it. BEEP and APEX.
http://www.beepcore.org/
BEEP is a new Internet standards-track protocol framework for new Internet applications.
APEX is an emerging relaying service for Internet applications. beepcore is a library
for developing BEEP-enabled applications. And beepcore.org is the web site for the growing
community of BEEP developers.
BEEP, the Application Protocol Framework
BEEP is a turbocharger for Internet applications that offers advanced features such as:
a standard application layer that supports dynamic, pluggable application "profiles"
(protocols)
peer-to-peer, client-server, or server-to-server capabilities
multiple channels over a single authenticated session
support for arbitrary MIME payloads, including XML
APEX, the Application Datagram Service
APEX is the emerging relaying service for Internet applications that offers:
lightweight, secure and/or soft real-time delivery
option-driven services for flexibility and extensibility
a highly-scalable architecture
built-in access and presence services
beepcore, the Software Library
beepcore is a software library that enables you to rapidly develop Internet applications
that use the advanced capabilities of BEEP. beepcore comes in Java, C, and Tcl flavors.
Best of all, beepcore is free software covered by a BSD-style license.
