Remember that JSR-107 users are potential Infinispan users, and viceversa, so keeping these interfaces separated would make the mental effort required to bridge the knowledge between the two easier. >>>> >>>> I tried to go back in the JSR-107 discussions to find discussions (google group) on this topic but couldn't find anything. Maybe Manik remembers something about it, but seems like this topic has been pretty much set in stone for quite a while. >>>> >>>> In terms of configuration, there's no issue at all.

People would hate us! E.g. the jdbc one: http://goo.gl/VQiQ3u I've written such parser on Friday, basically just copying and rewriting the SingleFileCacheStore stuff (adding my own properties instead). It took me about an hour and I don't hate anyone from infinispan team :) Maybe I am already advanced ISPN user, but I don't consider it as a complicated task as long as there is some template (simple cache-store implementation) I can use for reference.
