Yup. I wanted to use Velocity (or WebMacro or FreeMarker or other templating
engines) for ages but haven't been in a Web job where I could legitimately
take the time to learn it ;/

documentation is good. So if you are willing to provide I am sure none will
complain ;)

When AbstractLKoggable was originally added to CVS it did extend Component.
However it was later decided that it was better to be indepent of component.*
package. Mainly as each of the packages are independent of each other (ie
logger independent of activity/context/config/component/etc).
