I think there's a mis-communication. I do not at all feel HiveMind is "just an ego trip." Far from it.
Rather I was questioning how the decision about IoC adoption is being made. At the time HiveMind got started the IoC container space was pretty open and empty. Not so anymore. Of course Spring lacks features needed. Understood. Could Spring be extended? The trouble we all have -- it is certainly not unique to a creator of software or this software -- so I'm speaking of my own experience, is that I (and most folks I know) tend to get a bit skewed in favor of things that are our "babies" so to speak. And there's nothing wrong with that. But we need to recognize it when we're trying to make a decision and then correct for it. If HM is the best choice (not just technically, but also in terms of adoption) then great, but what's the process of deciding? Is it worth exploring Spring enhancements? That was the point.

As previously pointed out you can't really do contributions in Spring. And that was one of the key T3 features it was supposed to replace. While I'm not terribly happy about the multitude of concepts involved in writing a non-trivial Tap4 app, I bet it would have been much worse if it had been built on Spring. Being a bit blunt: If you think HiveMind is just an ego trip why dont you write a version of ApplicationServlet that uses Spring instead. If the two are equal it shouldn't be much of a challenge to swap HiveMind out.
