This has been defined many times over in Avalon, and I think the current 
definition is;

* Service; A contract of functionality, typically expressed as a java

* Component; One or many classes fulfilling one or many Service contracts.


My concern is that these definitions and all other contractual statements are 
not rock-solid.
