Hello,

are you aware of the Avalon Projekt at Jakarta
(http://jakarta.apache.org/avalon)? The Avalon framework itself offers a
component model and has a basic infrastructure for component design. On top
of that, there are several management container implementations (Fortress,
Phoenix, Merlin) with different complexity supporting enhanced life-cycle
models, deployment, management extensions, etc.

Some well known application use this model like James and Cocoon.

The docs are currently a little out-of-date, but the commiters are creating
a new release currently ... best to talk to them on the mailing list.

Just my 2c

Jörg
