Thanks Sherman.  A generalized ability to share cache objects across  
servers would be interesting to other people involved in the project,  
I'd imagine.

I understand it is possible that no changes would have been required  
to Mondrian for JasperServer to implement this feature.  Unless I'm  
missing the context of the actual feature which is possible. I assume  
you're not talking about caching MDX Result Sets, but rather  
distributing/clustering the cache objects managed by Mondrian (Member,  
segments, etc)?

If we're talking about Mondrian cache objects, did we all miss an  
opportunity to share and improve Mondrian caching to benefit  
everyone?  That, I think, remains the primary purpose of this list,  
public source, permissive license, etc?
