Re: [proposal] TCP port unification in GlassFish

Not really. This doesnt really help delaying the startup a particular
container.

One of the things, which I hope/thought grizzly v2 will solve is to have
the ability to
start a very small listener against starting the whole NIO framework. If
that is
possible and when MQ start using grizzly v2, on-demand framework can use
a listener in the grizzly framework and stop using its own listener.
