What I'm doing is breaking out differnt functional units - auto assembly 
being one of them. The assembly stuff based on containerkit is under the 
Excalibur Assembly package - it contains:

   - org.apache.excalibur.merlin.registry

       This is where the real work goes on in terms of building
       the implicit associations

   - orga.apache.excalibur.merlin.kernel

       This is the stuff related to container hierachies.

For now I havn't done anything related to actual component instantiation 
or dependency resolution from parent containers.  In pricipal - the 
result should be a set of service jar files from which different level 
of logical functinality can be pulled out and used indendently of a top 
level merlin kernel.
