Notice that the MonoServer that is described in the document is not an
application server, it is just part of the System.EnterpriseServices
runtime. The model of System.EnterpriseServices is different from the J2EE
model, where all components must run in a container.
System.EnterpriseServices is more flexible, it just define services that
components can use wherever they run.
