Yes. I am at a stage where I am concerned with understanding how to correctly apply Framework and Excalibur. > >The first Component I moved over was a DataSource component. Pretty > >straightforward.

That is what I thought, but could you elaborate more here? How would my non-component classes access component services like logging and datasource? I didn't see any documentation about how to use the ExcaliburComponentManager from within a servlet environment. I created a singleton class called ComponentContainer that uses the ExcaliburComponentManager. Is this the common way to do set this up? I suppose, I could just get the instance of my singleton ComponentContainer class in any class in my application and then retrieve a component, but I thought this might not be very good practice. I feel like I am asking pretty fundamental questions. Have I missed some critical examples or documentation?
