I'll take a look at JingDAO.  I just checked out Magic in the Avalon
sandbox, though  It only has one class right now (Avalon2PicoAdapter.java),
but it effectively proxies Avalon Framework calls to an IoC type 3
component.  It actually (almost) conforms to the Avalon PI proposal!  Do
great minds think alike or what? :)

I couldn't agree more.
