Stephen, The matter is completely in sync since the old documentation did NOT make a claim that constructor injection was part of the traditional Avalon 4.2 framework. Those documents and comments were only under the "Merlin" section. Leo's concern grew from the release of the new site, the elimination of the framework docs, and the claim that the constructor injection feature is part of the general Avalon framework. I've given you a list of concerns which included Leo's: 1. Drop of Avalon Framework as a "product" 2. Lack of Framework 4.1 documentation or any "framework" documentation at all (the only related docs are labeled under "component specification") 3. Concern and confusion about the constructor injection feature moving from a Merlin-specific enhancement to a general Avalon framework feature. 4. General concern and confusion about the role of the traditional framework library in Avalon's future. And here are the proposed solutions: 1. Re-introduction of prior Avalon Framework documentation 2. If constructor injection is to be part of the general Avalon framework, we should consider a major version jump to Avalon 5.0 out of respect for the various Avalon related projects. Now, as I stated before, would you like to address these or are you only interested in "political" rants of your own? J.
