[seam-dev] Seam 3 space on JBoss Community

Hi Guys,

Honestly, either way this goes, I think that any changes on this should wait
until Pete returns from vacation.   This is a major change for the project
and one that the project lead needs to be part of.  I'm not aware of all the
conversations related to this, so won't comment on the choices.

Pete will be back the first week in April, and since I don't think there is
any critical need to make the move I have a suggestion.

If you need new wiki pages, create them in the sfwk.org wiki.  If you want
keep them separate from other wiki pages ( tags, naming, links, whatever )
and self contained.  This way no one will be stopped from doing what they
need to do, and either way the choice goes you will already have a head
start.

The Seam 3 information does need updating, as I can attest with reviewing
the current builds and pages, but lets start with this approach, and then
work this out as a team when Pete returns.

My $.05,
Jay
