There have been several discussions in the past about searching for an 
alternative for Avalon/Phoenix. The main reason might be that the Avalon 
project has closed. 

'''Glossary'''

I find it difficult to name the things all that fancy framework do. And It 
seems the developers of that frameworks don't seem to have a consistent naming 
either. So what is OSGi? A platform? A microkernel? And Phoenix? And Avalon? A 
container?
So we should define it here.

'''Current Architecture'''

To be able to discuss switching the framework we need a summery what is 
currently used and how. 

 * Phoenix
 * Avalon
 * Cornerstone
 
'''The Alternatives'''

The first thing to to talk about would be the platform/microkernel the 
application runs in because that might limit the possibilities for the 
integration of additional frameworks. 

'''OSGi'''

 * My [:/OSGi/KnopflerfishTryOut: first steps] with Knopflerfish

'''Others'''

 * Plexus
