Yep - we definetly are restricted by that dot point. But I believe that means 
we can not distribute Glue. I am not sure there is any problem distributing 
things linked against glue.

Up to you. Ideally it would be nice to have one block "BlockCollector" that 
collected all the blocks together and there could be multiple "publishers". 
ie SOmething like


<!-- define the listener that collects references to all blocks -->
<listener name="ignored" class="BlockCollectorListener"/>

<!-- define the block that the listener sends list of collected blocks to -->
<block name="collector" class="BlockCollector"/>

<!-- define a publisher -->
<block name="ignored2" class="GluePublisher">
   <provide name="collector" 
            role="org.apache.avalon.BlockList" />
</block>

<!-- define a publisher -->
<block name="ignored3" class="AltrmiPublisher">
   <provide name="collector" 
            role="org.apache.avalon.BlockList" />
</block>

<!-- define a publisher -->
<block name="ignored3" class="RmiPublisher">
   <provide name="collector" 
            role="org.apache.avalon.BlockList" />
</block>

etc
