+ <p>Avalon has <b>a lot</b> of documentation (it has a lot of
code, too, but most users
+ don't see this as that much of a problem). It might be
difficult for you to see where
+ you should get started. That's why I wrote this little
document.</p>
+
+ <p>The place you get started is what we call the avalon
framework. This little bit of code
+ (the jar file is about 60k), combined with quite a bit of
documentation, will revolutionize
+ (in time) the way you write software.</p>

fix this was to provide an implementation specifically geared
at learning how avalon
works: tweety.</p>

+ One popular avalon subproject (also a container) is called
Phoenix. It has quite a
+ lot of features (runs multiple applications, classloader
management, isolation,
+ automagically provides management for hosted applications, etc
etc etc). It is also
+ quite difficult to get started with at first.<br />
+ "Phoenix" (among other things) is the name of a powerful
mythological bird. Tweety
+ is the name of a sweet yellow canary. Some of us geeks think it
is funny.</p>
