      The roadmap on the corporate site is actually more up-to-date than this one.
      Re IOC, Guice is not forgotten about; it'll be Guice or Pico, probably with some in-house adapters or layers, at least for a transition phase. Probably not gonna happen for 4.3, though.

      What's the license of the code you sent a link to?
