Re: [hibernate-dev] [jdf-dev] JBoss Modules dependency vs pain POM dependency + exclusions

Below is an email describing the issues i had to get Hibernate Search run in WildFly / EAP. A possibility to make life easier for Hibernate Search users in WildFly is as described by Pete to create a hibernate-search-orm-wildfly which marks Hibernate ORM as provided. What do you think?

If the BOM is out of date (highly possible), then please either send a pull to update it or ask Rafael to do so.
