pico container?

[Glenn R. Golden]

I'm new to Avalon, and I really like it.  I've got some experience with 
Turbine services from Jetspeed and we use the ideas of services in our 
project (chefproject.org).  I'm looking for our next generation service 
methodology.

Then I ran across Pico Container, and read the stuff on their web site. 
 I think I grok the essential difference between Avalon Framework and 
Pico Container - they like to have all the dependent components 
delivered to a component in the constructor, while in Avalon you ask 
for other components when you need them.

I'm not sure what to make of this difference.  Pico is much simpler 
(?).  But what am I loosing for that simplicity?

If anyone cares to comment on the Pico v.s. Avalon Framework question, 
I'd be happy to listen.

Thanks.
