Some of the design principles presented are very much in line with the PEAK 
vision; the main differences are in some details of obtaining service 
components.  Marc's design calls for the "application instance" to hold 
references to service components, as did earlier versions of PEAK.  But the 
current view in PEAK is to have a "Service Area" component above the 
application instance to hold all global services, thus keeping the 
application instance from having to know in detail about the services 
needed by its subcomponents.
