get yourself CVS and checkout jakarta-avalon-*. [1] You'll be on the bleeding edge (but for the important, released parts, like framework, ECM, logkit, you won't notice the difference as changes to those from the release are backwards-compatible).
Quite a bit of material you'll be getting is in an alpha stage though (like AltRMI), and it is not always clearly marked which parts are not. We need to fix this; it is on the agenda!
