[rules-dev] drools-spring and drools-guice

[Xavier Breton]

Hi, I based the implementation in the FactoryBean of Geoffrey, that is here:
http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=RulesWithSpringFramework
I'm adding some functionality from Paul's bean.

In the talk I had with Mark yesterday the idea is as follow:
- A way to define and cache rule bases and working memories.
- The Rule Agent should be provided as a preconfigured service.
- An object creation life cycle management like the implementation of
Ales with auto assertion/retraction into registered working memories.

I think during the weekend I send something working for getting feedback.

Some ideas?
