So, if I am stuck currently using ECM, then I need to keep it. Or, I guess if I think users of my wrapper are running it in ECM as well..
Any suggestions on what the best way to move forward? Deprecate the interface or something? Release two versions of the wrapper, one with and one without? I guess, now that I grok the docs a bit better, that I am now supposed to use Serviceable and the ServiceManager in all the places I had Composable and ComponentManager? I guess my other question is whether to use upgrade Turbine's AvalonComponentService to use Fortress or Merlin. The overview doc (http://avalon.apache.org/containers/index.html) seems to suggest Fortress, however Merlin has a release out. Thanks for your help, this IoC buzzword stuff is very interesting.
