Ok - no problem - but beware - its a moving target - and 

1. I'm really pissed off that ComponentMetaData does not include context 
criteria ..!
2. I'm not giving up on this so get ready for a fight ;-)
3. Cascading configurations rock - so look out for a pluggable 
ComponentInfo internalization handler!
4. Kernel is cool but needs seperation from the container.
5. DependecyMap is driving me crazy!

Cheers, Steve.
