Shash:
The Avalon community took a vote on this subject and decided to resolve things with one architecture, one platform, one container. That decision has ripple effect which your currently witnessing - but the upside is that people are actually making decisions based on fact:
* one avalon RI
This isn't about setting a context to get framework right - its about going way beyond framework and doing what Avalon has been chartered to do:
* component and service management
On the context of one RI and our charter, we do have a responsibility to provide a viable migration path. I hope that you'll contribute to that because there a lot of benefit in getting the migration process right. That benefit is all about one community working together on one platform. Looking further out its about going beyond "containers" - focusing much more on the bigger picture of an globally integrated service management environment. From this perspective the current issues concerning migration are short term and addressable - and a necessary part of moving on.
Cheers, Stephen.

I haven't yet discovered a solution which seems perfect to me. Perhaps it is one of these but I need to give them more thought.
Also, merlin is a much better candidate as a TLP. Fortress could then stay in Avalon.
As Leif and Hammett have said, there is no compelling reason for Fortress/Phoenix users to change containers currently. These containers need to be maintained and allowed to evolve gradually. As also has been mentioned, there are different sets of developers ready to support each container. I do not view breaking up the containers into either TLPs or, alternatively, Avalon sub-projects as a bad things; that politically and administratively demarcates the interface/implementation split that architecturally Avalon already has.
