8 * This is a interface definition for java-based party implementations that are
9 * to be run on the PartiesServer.
10 *
11 * To implement a party to run on the PartiesServer, you must implement this and
12 * also have a 0-arg constructor. Also we strongly recommend not to use any
13 * static code blocks or do anything serious in the constructor. Instances of
14 * your class may also be created only to call the getCapabilities function.
15 *
16 * <p>
17 * Technical details: normally a Party will be spawned inside a PartiesFactory,
18 * and incoming/outgoing calls are routed through a websocket there.
