The static stuff is going away. If your not using a Service Locator of some type you're going to have implement your own "ObjectFactory" as referenced here:

public static class ObjectFactory
{
    private static readonly Lazy _containerBuilder =
            new Lazy(defaultContainer, LazyThreadSafetyMode.ExecutionAndPublication);

    public static IContainer Container
    {
       get { return _containerBuilder.Value; }
    }

     private static Container defaultContainer()
     {
        return new Container(x =>
        {
               // default config
         });
     }
}

Update: My previous answer was wrong. Thanks @JoeMighty for the heads up.
