Just as the priginal author of autobind, I'm really interested to work together. :)
I think there are multiple companies which created something similiar. Netflix with Governator was one of them. Another one is Sonatype, which did amazing stuff in plexus and so on. My dream is to get them all together and create de-facto standard for classpath scanning and binding through annotations. So I'm open for discussions, ideas, patches, ... Due to the fact that my time is really little 'til June (because of a major release / go-to-market) I appreciate every help. :) 2013/2/22 Eric Charles <e...@apache.org> > Hi Jordan, > > Great to read you on the Onami mailing list. > > It all began with Simo calling for a community around guice extensions > [1].
