Minimalism

Dan Creswell writes about the various directions Javaspaces could be taken...

I’m a minimalist, I like my JavaSpaces nice and simple and I like being able to construct cleanly layered frameworks on top of JavaSpaces. This allows me to have nicely separated responsibilities at each layer leading to (IMHO) better, more understandable, more maintainable design in my systems. I also like to avoid building such layers on top of JavaSpaces if there’s something out there already that can do the job better in a specific scenario.
