[Interest] Data Distribution Service as a new Qt IPC?

Thanks,

I did not see the discussion of Replicant before.  Seems like they would like DDS as well.   Actually I would like to see the Qt Service Framework restored  to the core and have DDS implemented as a transport mechanism in addition to QLocalSocket and DBus. This way applications are written using standard Qt,  but can be deployed using tranport mechanisms appropriate for the use case at hand.

If you have intention to do that, go ahead and request the repository.

Note also the discussions about Replicant about a month and a half ago.
