[bv-dev] Planned public draft for end of this week

For your info, to comply with some of the EE train constraints, I am planning on providing the public draft of the specification to the JCP end of this week. Hardy, Gunnar and I are racing to add the various proposals that have been floating around lately into the specification and API. It feels natural to provide a new milestone release for all the work that has been done lately. A good chunk of it is around refinements for method validation but we will also have a few new features in. A lot of work is being done to clarify and refine how CDI and Bean Validation will interact. There has been a discussion with Pete Muir (CDI spec lead) to try and find the best approach. These discussions are mostly summarized in https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/BVAL-307 I apologize for not giving a longer warning about this deadline. I have been caught by JavaOne and us racing to put the features in concrete words. Emmanuel
