 ## Interfaces
 
-```javascript
+Two base classes may be used to satisfy these use cases:
 
-/**
- * Something that can be installed in a running instance of MCT.
- * @interface Installable
- */
+ * The `CompositeServiceFactory` provides composite service instances.
+   Decorators may be added; the approach used for compositing may be
+   modified; and individual services may be registered to support compositing.
+ * The `ExtensionRegistry` allows for the simpler case where what is desired
+   is an array of all instances of some kind of thing within the system.
 
-/**
- * Install this plugin in an instance of MCT.
- * @method Installable#install
- * @param mct the instance of MCT in which to install
- */
+Note that additional developer use cases may be supported by using the
+more general-purpose `Registry`
 
-/**
- * A bundle is a set of related features that can
- * be installed in MCT.
- * @class
- * @implements {Installable}
- * @param {Metadata} metadata metadata about this bundle
- */
-function Bundle(metadata) {
-    this.metadata = metadata;
-}
+```nomnoml

-Bundle.prototype.install = function (mct) {};

-Creating a bundle then looks like:
+## Examples
 
-```javascript
-define([
-    'mct',
-    './SomeExtension',
-    './SomeService'
-], function (mct, SomeExtension, SomeService) {
-    var plugin = new mct.Bundle({
-        key: 'myBundle',
-        name: "My bundle",
-        description: "A bundle that I made."
-    });
+### 1. Add new extension instances.
 
-    plugin.extension
-
-    return plugin;
+```js
+// Instance-style registration
+mct.types.register(new mct.Type({
+    key: "timeline",
+    name: "Timeline",
+    description: "A container for activities ordered in time."
 });
 
+// Factory-style registration
+mct.actions.register(function (domainObject) {
+    return new RemoveAction(domainObject);
+}, { priority: 200 });
 ```
+
+### 2. Use existing services
+
+```js
+mct.actions.register(function (domainObject) {
+    var dialogService = mct.ui.dialogServiceFactory();
+    return new PropertiesAction(dialogService, domainObject);
+});
+```
+
+### 3. Add new service implementations
+
+```js
+// Instance-style registration
+mct.persistenceServiceFactory.register(new LocalPersistenceService());
+
+// Factory-style registration
+mct.persistenceServiceFactory.register(function () {
+    var $http = angular.injector(['ng']).get('$http');
+    return new LocalPersistenceService($http);
+});
+```
+
+### 4. Decorate service implementations
+
+```js
+mct.modelServiceFactory.decorate(function (modelService) {
+    return new CachingModelDecorator(modelService);
+}, { priority: 100 });
+```
+
+### 5. Decorate extension instances
+
+```js
+mct.capabilities.decorate(function (capabilities) {
+    return capabilities.map(decorateIfApplicable);
+});
+```
+
+This use case is not well-supported by these API changes. The most
+common case for decoration is capabilities, which are under reconsideration;
+should consider handling decoration of capabilities in a different way.
+
+### 6. Add new types of services
+
+```js
+myModule.myServiceFactory = new mct.CompositeServiceFactory();
+
+// In cases where a custom composition strategy is desired
+myModule.myServiceFactory.composite(function (services) {
+    return new MyServiceCompositor(services);
+});
+```
+
+### 7. Add new extension categories.
+
+```js
+myModule.hamburgers = new mct.ExtensionRegistry();
+```
+
+## Evaluation
+
+### Benefits
+
+* Encourages separation of registration from declaration (individual
+  components are decoupled from the manner in which they are added
+  to the architecture.)
+* Minimizes "magic." Dependencies are acquired, managed, and exposed
+  using plain-old-JavaScript without any dependency injector present
+  to obfuscate what is happening.
+* Offers comparable expressive power to existing APIs; can still
+  extend the behavior of platform components in a variety of ways.
+* Does not force or limit formalisms to use;
+
+### Detriments
+
+* Does not encourage separation of dependency acquisition from
+  declaration; that is, it would be quite natural using this API
+  to acquire references to services during the constructor call
+  to an extension or service. But, passing these in as constructor
+  arguments is preferred (to separate implementation from architecture.)
+* Adds (negligible?) boilerplate relative to declarative syntax.
