RE: ICAP Server Implementation

It is definitely valuable to have a set of service APIs that will enable
service developers to develop services on top of iCAP. Some of us have been
thinking in this space - in general for OPES - for a while now and we hope
to get some traction soon. 
The idea is to have a "service platform API" that will hopefully alleviate
pain for service developers  and create an environment for rapid development
of services. A subsetof the APIs can be made specific for each call out
protocol in OPES (like ICAP) and there can be the other subset that is
callout protocol independent.

Thanks. Just have a look of source code. I am wondering without a clear
interface between ICAP server and service, how do we made new services 
available to this server?

Hi,
    I am  trying to play with ICAP recently. Is there any 
open source
implementation of ICAP server? 
    Since the performance is one of the most important 
issues of ICAP 
server, does anybody know how does the ICAP server hosting 
those services,
and mapping ICAP requests to them? If I have some services which are
implemented in Servlet, How can I benefit from ICAP? 
    Thanks.
