whatever that means

Sounds like he's doing for moodle what we're doing for tetra, i.e.  
Service-ify the moodle "tools"? and use a new framework to tie them  
together. He's wrapping Moodle in Java.

Analogy:
The Guanxi IdP does what Bod does - it authenticates you against the  
bod database. However, it doesn't:

instead, it:

s/Moodle/Bod

i.e. it loads the bod authenticator as a "service" and uses it to  
auth you.

Sounds like he's doing the same sort of thing for Moodle.
