If we can configure an existing and simple DI system to be used instead of our Embedded version I think we should use it in the future.The pb is that we're going to add DI events + Realms soon so it's going to be more complex already... I wouldn't drop it right now. In addition it validates our system can work with different DI systems. Note that I've also started reading up on OSGi and I'm starting to see how we could implement an OSGi adapter that would work for us (using Apache Felix for ex). This is still in research on my side. So right now I'm in favor of keeping plexus and upgrading to the latest release (which is what I'm working on - I need a fix on plexus from jason for that). Thanks -Vincent
