Hi, Yep. I actually am running Fusebox now. That's how I'm managing most of my projects, as a matter of fact. I really like having the framework, but my question is really more theoretical than practical. I'm curious to find out how to go about adding plug-able interfaces without the use of Fusebox...mostly for academic reasons. Thanks!

One of the main advantages of using these two frameworks is the ability to ease maintenance in the long run.
