Hi,<br>
<br>
For those who don't know me let me introduce myself. I'm a french senior consultant specialized in Java EE architecture (i don't work for Redhat but I manage a consultant team in a business unit of a small IT company in Paris)). I joined the Seam 3 project a few months ago after Devoxx and Lincoln invitation to work on Seam Social. The goal of this module is to provide CDI beans to manage communication with major Social Network (Twitter, Foursquare, LinkedIn, ...).<br>

I lost a lot of time exploring the available technical options to implement this module. I also had to learn CDI which is very different than Seam 2.X ;-) and had to wait for stabilization of some of the core module, to be sure of my choices.<br>

I've just pushed The Seam Social module on Github : <a href="https://github.com/antoinesd/seam-social" target="_blank">https://github.com/antoinesd/seam-social</a><br>
<br>
At the moment, it contains an web application that can manage an OAuth connexion to Twiiter and send an update status (I know it's not very spectacular, but there is more to come :-) ).</blockquote><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
<br>
I'm not quite sure of the next step, but I'll probably need some help to make the best out of CDI to use extension or decorators for instance mapping JSON to pojo with Jackson. As i'm not an API designer guy your feedback and critics for improvement are off course more than welcomed.<br>
</blockquote><div><br></div><div>Great! Given that we are nearing 20 developers on Seam 3, I'm confident you'll get more than enough feedback. I'm excited to take a look once I return from the road :) No doubt, it's something worth "tweeting" about :)</div>
