[jsr-314-open] [ADMIN] Proposal Faces Managed Bean Annotations For Containers that implement Servlet 2.5 and Beyond

[Jason Lee]

I'm 100% OK with supporting both options.  As you know, I think, from
a separate email, I currently have a small JSF2 app under development
running on GlassFish v2.  I *may* end up adding Seam to help solve
from issues with security and JPA+transactions.  I may throw in
Guice.  Who knows?  I'm still just tinkering.  For the time being,
though, @ManagedBean is doing the trick for me (e.g., http://blogs.steeplesoft.com/bootstrapping-a-jsf-2-project/)
  It would be a shame to lose that.
