[hibernate-dev] HHH-5562, services and eventlisteners

[Steve Ebersole]

The general idea in that JIRA is discovery of "something".  The JIRA initially 
discussed discovery as a means for automatic listener registration.  I want to 
expand that to cover services as well. 

The question was really just whether anyone see a need for these to be 
different processes.  Or whether one "discovery contract" (that could handle 
listeners and/or services) would suffice.
