-      Notice that the Message Bus is defined. It will automatically detect and register all channels and endpoints,
-      and it will manage the Lifecycle for each endpoint. Notice that the objects are simple POJOs with strongly

+      As you can see, each Message Endpoint is connected to input and/or output channels. Each endpoint will manage
