Hi Rob, hope this is not to late...somehow managed to miss the call-for-content I guess...
Avalon ====== Editor: Leo Simons Things have been so active, I can only provide a small sampling of what's been going on :) Like many projects at apache, avalon has been busy discussing how to fit into the new structure that is currently in the works. Being one of the projects that has suffered most from 'scope creep', there is a lot to think about [1]. With avalon committers on the Incubator and Commons PMCs, there's definately a promising perspective. There have also been quite a few bug fixes and enhancements in various places (like Avalon Phoenix now providing good support for using log4j [2] and allowing customizable classloader trees [3]). There's been work integrating catalina and jo! [4] with phoenix. Following extended discussion [5], avalon also gained an implementation of the delegate design pattern.
