[seam-dev] Issue resolved with JBoss AS 7 CR1 and Seam Social

[Mark Struberg]

yes, it would definitely confuse people imo.

Especially since you can activate Extensions by adding them in
WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/services/..
but 
WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/beans.xml
would be ignored?

Feels a bit odd ;)

LieGrue,
