I thought this beast was dead!

Lately, however, I've been using itwriting's HtmlEditor control. It
appears that this contorl is all about OLE2 interfaces: IOleClientSite,
IOleContainer, IDocHostUIHandler, IOleInPlaceFrame, IOleInPlaceSite and
IOleDocumentSite (see  Tim Anderson's "When .Net and COM meet" at
www.appdevadvisor.co.uk/Downloads/ADA7_1/Anderson7_1.pdf).

Now, I understand that when you'r messing with an existing component such
as mshtml you have to play by its rules. My question, however, is about
the architecture: Should OLE  still be used in today's new components? If
not, what replaces it?
