Added to the jira: Not only hot, but - Scheduled: e.g. 'deploy now' become active at 23:00 (or 11pm ;-) ), or mark a service as becomming unavailable a 3 weeks from now - Versioned: Service A version 1 uses Service B version 2, Service B gets a new version, needed for other things, but Service A should still be able to use Service B version 2 for as long as needed. If I think of more examples/requirements, I'll add them here. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4020623#...
