fortress != legacy

Hi gang!

In updating the excalibur website, I've found numerous references to 
fortress and excalibur as being essentially "nearly dead" and "legacy 
stuff; don't use" and similar remarks.

This is, of course, not (no longer, at least! :-D) true.

With all the updates going on around the avalon site that I haven't 
tracked closely, I have no idea how many of those "disclaimers" still 
exists in other parts of the avalon website. Just a reminder that if you 
encounter any while working on it, it'd be nice if you could do us the 
favor of updating them.

cheers!

Well, the component interfaces and ECM *were* depricated in favor of 
service interfaces and Fortress.

We're working on a complete rewrite of the Avalon site.  Most of the 
Excalibur and Fortress docs will go away, or better yet, transfer to 
excalibur.apache.org.  A legacy section will be put together that should 
look like:
   http://www.apache.org/~mcconnell/site/central/legacy/index.html

Please note that it is still under construction.
