[iot-wg] Python OSGI Services

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi IoT working group,

I'm making available a first release of a Py4j-based Remote Services 
provider [1].  This provider is based upon Py4j 0.10.6 and Google 
Protocol Buffers.  It allows OSGi services to be implemented in Python 
and/or Java-implemented services to be used in Python code.   See this 
tutorial [2] for an example where an OSGi service is implemented in Python.

This work is currently being used to implement edge 
analytics...implemented in both Python and Java...in an OSGi-based 
Internet of Things gateway.

Please raise issues, questions, etc at either [3] or [4].

Scott
