Replace Spring IoC

with...not sure what at the moment. We could just have old school factories to do the wiring for the time being, but IIRC Vert.x provides some sort IoC mechanism. Find out about it.

@c0c0n3 : does Vert.x have something of its own that I can look at? From my point-of-view, Spring is at least a (very) well-known entity, so no objections to keep it.

I couldn't find a straight Spring IoC replacement, but as you pointed out, we could still use Spring IoC from Vert.x or vice-versa. Definitely need to investigate this further. But one thing I wanted to avoid is to bring into the mix too many parts as it might make the learning curve too steep? Or maybe it's not an issue at all, let's discuss it.
