[jboss-dev] Embedded Release Requirement for AS 5.2.0 Beta

[Andrew Lee Rubinger]

As it stands, EmbeddedAS is a standalone project which depends upon AS. 
  To bring this into the AS build/testsuite is to introduce a cyclic 
dependency.

The reasoning behind this structure was to decouple "EmbeddedAS", a 
combined API for lifecycle/config/deployment from AS proper.  We can 
bring in the entire AS dependency chain transitively in one declaration, 
thus making for a single entry point for users.  In turn, this is how 
the Embedded tests are set up/run.

If we need to rethink this relationship, now is the time and I welcome 
all comments.  To be honest I started developing outside in this little 
sandbox for prototyping and it's stood since.  Will sleep on it and post 
more ideas to the list as they come.
