The link on the web site:

Has two context keys defined an done attribute defined.  Obviously this
is not enough, but we need to get to the proper abstractions.  Anyway,
here are some changes that need to be performed:

CONTEXT

Key           Type                Description
-----------   ----------------    -------------------------------------
avalon:home   java.net.URL        This is a context directory that may
                                   contain a bunch of files that a
                                   component needs to do its work.  There
                                   is NO GUARANTEE that the URL is
                                   writable.

avalon:work   java.io.File       This is a work directory that the
                                  component may use as a work area.  This
                                  directory MUST be writable.

avalon:name   java.lang.String   The name of a component (is this
                                  really necessary?)


ATTRIBUTES

avalon:lifestyle  (SINGLETON|THREAD|POOL|TRANSIENT)  Currently
                                  sufficient, but I am awaiting more info
                                  on Peter's proposals.
