One wise man* once said "EJB was a hype specification, we added too many things to it, it became bloated. The next hype specifications are JAX-RS and CDI, careful with them"

Either we get this idea of "parts" right, or CDI will endup being bloated.

Hi all,

You may have followed the rise and fall of the Java Config JSR (http://javaeeconfig.blogspot.ch/2014/09/no-java-ee-configuration-for-ee8-dear.html).
Anatole in CC was leading this initiative and I proposed him to join us and explore if some part of his late-JSR could be done in CDI.

I’m mainly thinking of https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-123 or related solution. If we achieve to have a majority of specs to integrate with CDI, our configuration solution would therefore become a configuration system for all spec based on CDI 2.0.
