I subscribe to this conclusion, and in fact would extend it to the debugging case: I always insisted that migration should be a mostly transparent mechanism -- the fact that the code actually runs in the receiver is an implementation detail; things should look just as if it was still in the sender. I don't think it's important to be able to debug a module after migration -- just debug the server itself... -antrik-
