Re: [cdi-dev] Having an official CDI tutorial and user forum

Hi Antoine, There is the great tutorial written by Gavin, that until now we have folded into the Weld ref guide. My suggestion is to extract it back out again, and add a section for getting started with each impl of CDI. http://docs.jboss.org/weld/reference/2.1.0.Final/en-US/html/ We would include sections I, II, III and IV. We would expand II to cover other impls (hopefully getting contributions from these teams). WDYT?
