I'm a noob to Coldspring and Mach-II, so I downloaded both and started playing 
with the example files.  It's a minor thing that may have been fixed (I'm using 
the stable version)but the Feedviewer CFCs break under unix (Solaris, 
specifically in my case.) The fix was easy to track down - the extends 
attribute in the example CFCs extend lower case components, but Mach-II has 
them all upper. So, for example, I had to change "listener" to "Listener" in 
the example CFCs.

I've found similar bugs in the plugins, but haven't had time to run them down. 
This isn't a huge thing, but it was a minor frustration as I am just trying to 
figure out and understand Coldspring and dependency injection. Since this was 
v0.2.1.1, it's not unexpected to have minor issues and it actually is useful 
for me to dig into the code, but I thought you'd want to know.

Also, I wasn't planning on using Mach-II, but it seemed the easiest way to jump 
into the exmple - there doesn't seem to be a controller-agnostic version.  In 
hindsight, I think this will be good for me, since I was planning on looking 
into M2 in the future, but it definitely steepens the learning curve!

Anyhow, thanks for the work. These sorts of things are invaluable for us who 
are long time CFers but short time OOPers.
