Design Goals

• Single jar file. Ron W. Makes it hard to have collaboration, encourages intermodlue dependencies, makes build slow and test suite too big, makes it hard for developers to replace parts, makes it hard to support multiple lower level alternatives. Would prefer to have 8 separate projects with possibly different teams on some parts programming to agreed interfaces.
• Compact, small memory footprint.
• Scalable from SBCs to enterprise-class ERP systems.
• Reuses existing technologies.

• Easy to configure and maintain.
