Yes - org.apache.avalon.framework.service.ServiceManager
It identical to ComponentManager with the exception that it is independent
of the Component marker interface.

Absolutly not - there is a lot of noice covering stuff that has been
discussed lots of times before - I am confident on predicting that
Avalon 5 will look very much like Avalon today - with perhaps a few
carefully thought-out optimizations (and I really mean numbers of
changescan be counted on the fingers of one hand - e.g. deprication of
remove() on CM/SM would be one such change).
Cheers, Steve.
