Well, the good news is, this is just what we need to get started.  The bad 
news is by calling it "the Papaki project (formerly JBoss Annotations)", 
and asking people who would be interested in using this project, you're 
already leaking implementation considerations into a purely requirements 
doc. :-)

What this document should really say is, "What projects need to read 
annotation data, scan annotations to determine deployment information, or 
in any other way use annotations at compile time OR run time, and what 
exactly are the requirements for each project?"  And this should include 
ALL of our projects which do annotation scanning, not just projects which 
have a particular interest in the specific Papaki implementation (or any 
other implementation), otherwise we're going to miss out on some use-case data.
