I have had this discussion, and cleaning up factories is most of what is 
slowing us down on the FM branch :-(
Making the decision and getting it accomplished seems to be the problem, 
the FM branch is trying so hard on
the accomplishing side ... please help!

Containers (like builders) have nothing really to do with it (aka they 
are both ways to make factories appear
easier to use by reducing the amount of code needed to use them)...
Factory - create methods that produce exactly what they say (no logic)
Builder - reduce code by maintaining state that is used accross calls to 
Factory.create
Container - reduce code by automatically calling all the 
Factory.setFactoryXXXX(...) methods

Lets take up this topic in tonights meeting,
Jody
