  <section name="The Discovery Component">
  
  <p>The Discovery Component is about discovering, or finding,
  implementations for pluggable interfaces.
  </p>
  
  <p>Pluggable interfaces are specified with the intent that
  multiple implementations are, or will be,
  available to provide the service described by the interface.
  Examples include commons-logging, JAXP, etc.
  In the absence of a common service for discoverying interface implementations,
  many components have pioneered design and implementation principles for self-discovery.
  The Commons Discovery component seeks to stand on the shoulders of these giants,
  by extracting the essential principles and making them available to both
  end user developers and to facility self-discovery for those components that
  would provide such services through their APIs.
