/**
 * <p>
 * This interface contains the core parts of an OpenEdit website. In most cases
 * the default implementation {@link com.openedit.BaseWebServer} will be
 * sufficient. If for any reason you need to customize it to suit your needs you
 * can write a custom implementation that implements this interface (e.g. if you
 * wanted to use a Spring WebApplicationContext rather than just a BeanFactory).
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * The implementation of this interface is responsible for loading the Spring
 * beans as defined in the openedit.xml and any applicable plugin.xml or
 * pluginoverrides.xml files for extending functionality from the core of
 * OpenEdit.
