 <h3 id="note-on-synchronous-event-sending">Note on synchronous event sending</h3>
 <p>By default, events are sent using asynchronous sending (a.k.a.<em>post</em> in OSGi EventAdmin). You can use synchronous sending by defining the <em>synchronous</em> attribute of your publisher to true.</p>
 <p>The behavior of synchronous event sending is particular when you specify several topics in the publisher description. The event is synchronously sent to each topic, one by one. So when you return from this function, you can be sure that the event has been delivered to each topic.</p>
 <h3 id="publisher-instance-information">Publisher instance information</h3>
 <p>All events sent by a publisher contains the name of the component instance that sent them. Its enables to filter received events depending the sender instance. The instance name is accessible in the event dictionary by the key <em>publisher.instance.name</em>. Despite it goes against MOM principles, this property is useful to trace events and especially event sources.</p>
 <h3 id="configuring-the-handler-with-annotations">Configuring the handler with annotations</h3>
-<p>It is possible to configure the handler with a simple annotations available in the annotation pack ('annotation' project in the iPOJO trunk). Here is an example of usage:
