Re: [RT] Some notes about the "Real Blocks" issue

[Guido Casper]

Ugo, can you explain what exactly are the dependencies on Spring? My 
rather limited) understanding is, that we primarily would use Spring's 
BeanFactory. As the BeanFactory is:
a) designed to not introduce any dependency for your components
b) rather trivial to re-implement

for a start it would be the easiest to just drop in spring-core.jar. But 
we would have to make sure, that this cannot be interpreted as an 
invitation to introduce other dependencies.

I still think it would be better to write our own entirely from scratch.
Want to use ideas for Spring? sure, bring them on, but depending on 
it is asking for trouble.

100% agreed! :-P
