Castle Project
The Castle Project (or Castle for short) is an open source application framework for CLI platform implementations (e.g., .NET Framework).
History
The project was founded by Hamilton Verissimo de Oliveira (Hammett), who was a member of the Apache Avalon and the Apache Excalibur projects. Keenly interested in the development of an inversion of control container, after he resigned from Avalon and became disillusioned with Excalibur, he went on to develop and release his own for the .NET platform.
Hammett was joined by other developers after publishing a series of articles on Code Project, and the Castle Project eventually expanded its mission "to provide a simple set of tools to speed up the development of common enterprise and web applications while promoting good architecture".
The Castle Project continues to gain acceptance and mind-share from the .NET community, including recognition from Microsoft thought leaders as a framework to assist with building "robust, extensible, working software".

Ruined Castle
by: ArvenDeep in the forest lies
a castle ruined by time
It's stones lay there
as the centuries went by
If they could speak they
would tell a traveller
Stories from long passed days
of battles and of feasts
Among this walls there
once has been life
Babies were brought into
the world and old men died
Characters from ancient past
Awake up in my fantasy
Mighty kings and noble knights
Come to lfie once more
From far away I hear a sound
it appears to me
That in a minute a hunt with
horses and hound will ride back in
Characters from ancient past
Awake up in my fantasy
Mighty kings and noble knights
Come to lfie once more
Characters from ancient past
Awake up in my fantasy
Mighty kings and noble knights
Come to lfie once more
All this dreamy fantasy
Makes me fall asleep
And another day passed
