I am (strongly) +1 on introducing the no-logging strategy,
                 +1 on the Constructor Dependency Injection support in
                    the components avalon produces,

provided everything remains backwards-compatible. Without having checked 
out the patches yet, I'm sure Paul knows what he's doing wrt backwards 
compat. Maybe a good idea to just give him back commit privs?

Oh, and sure, I'm also +1 on introducing this stuff @ excalibur. But its 
an orthogonal discussion as excalibur doesn't depend on cornerstone...

Logging neutral you mean :-)

I you like.  I'd only need those to Cornerstone. If we stray into 
Excalibur for the same reason, then that can be debated another day.
