Integrating Remote Task Flows

It's been an interesting morning. I had an issue with internal development where they had a task flow and on one of the pages it had a region that contained a reference to a remote task flow as well (running in a separate container). They wanted to have the local task flow to have access to the remote task flows page flow scope (a page flow specific memory context).

My solution to this was to either bring the task flow local by including it as an ADF library, or to utilize the in/out parameters to a task flow to return the values they were particularly interested in from the remote task flow. I spoke with Duncan Mills to validate my solution and he seemed interested in putting a requirement into the framework where we could have real time contextual access to the remote resources scope. This would involve putting a queuing mechanism in place to handle the transfer of events/requests between the containers. Coherence perhaps?

I'll keep you informed!
