Thus, I don't see any reason to copy exploded deployments.  I just don't think it buys us anything. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/560026#560026] Start a new discussion in JBoss AS7 Development at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
