Avalon/Phoenix Management Documentation
=======================================

Objectives
----------
- Create a simple mechanism by which component authors can define management 
operations and attributes without regard for how the container implements management
- Define a structure for how management information is organized that is rich enough 
to be useful without restricting or presupposing the interface
- Work across broad range of components (eg. not restricted to Phoenix blocks)
- Be able to retrofit existing components without modifying the source code


Outline
-------
1) Organizing Structure for Management Data (Contexts, Targets & Topics) (audience: 
everone)
2) Implementation Overview (audience: everyone)
3) MXINFO files (audience: component authors)
4) phoenix-mx xdoclet tags (audience: component authors)
5) Container responsibilities to support management (audience: container authors)
6) link to javadocs (audience: reference)
7) future direction (eg. generation of interfaces from MXINFO files) (audience: 
internal)
