# Mediator
## Purpose
This pattern provides an easy to decouple many components working together.
It is a good alternative over Observer IF you have a "central intelligence",
like a controller (but not in the sense of the MVC).
All components (called Colleague) are only coupled to the MediatorInterface and
it is a good thing because in OOP, one good friend is better than many. This
is the key-feature of this pattern.
