I agree 100%.  I've often found myself promoting Avalon and inevitably the
developers return with questions similar to what you mentioned:

"It looks interesting, but, what does it do again?"

Contrasting Avalon to potentially more familiar technologies would go a long
way in helping comprehension.  One part of this could be taking an entire
application and showing a J2EE approach verus an Avalon approach.  Perhaps an
Avalon Petstore?

Anyway, I'm interested in helping out.
