Nope, I'm doing everything with Dain and XBR which is entirely
agnostic. At the core of XBR is a simple model called a recipe which
describes how objects are supposed to be wired up. How you create
recipes doesn't matter. So with Plexus Dain took the existing
component descriptors and created the recipes which then tell XBR how
to inject various components into other components, and how to
configure components. The closest thing to it is Guice, but is not so
hard-wired to Java5 annotations. I'm happy to allow a little more
flexibility where Guice wants absolute certainty up-front and that's
fine but it's certainly not the model I want for Plexus. The proof is
in the pudding and XBR works great inside Plexus.

As far as annotations go, I completely agree with Jason, that
Annotations should be standardized, and framework-agnostic.
