I think the best and most productive way is the combination of the two alternatives you stated before: let's discuss your requirements and let's develop things together. And than bring all the exciting stuff back to the community! We as a company will definitely use Merlin in enterprise projects - that's why we are engaged in the development of MerlinDeveloper (an Eclipse based development environment for Avalon/Merlin), transparent persistence, GUI abstraction layer etc... Great things are right on the way to appear: Container independent component specifications, core business components, pluggable system facilities... Let's share thought's. There are really bright brains in this community!
