 * 1) Implementation of this interface should only have a constructor without parameters 

 * 2) ITrigger implementation can be instantiated multiple times during the server life time.
 *      (Depends on the number of times trigger folder is updated.)

 * 3) ITrigger implementation should be state-less (avoid dependency on instance variables).

 *

The API is still beta and can change.
