Bring Embedded back to AS and simplify things?
Okay :-)

I've a proposal for the next iteration of JBAS, 6.0.0.M3.
We originally released "EmbeddedAS"[1] as an extension to JBossAS; that
is, it depends upon JBossAS and is an add-on library. The reasoning
behind this move was to allow for rapid releases of the Embedded APIs
without waiting on a full JBAS release cycle, and this has always been
intended to be temporary.
However, this:
1) Is confusing to users
2) Creates more boilerplate/setup code to set up the ClassLoading [2]
3) Isn't really proper. An API to JBAS belongs in JBAS itself.
So I'd like to introduce one or more modules under repos/jbossas/trunk
to account for the AS bootstrap and Embedded APIs.
From there we can have org.jboss.Main become just another user of the
AS Embedded APIs.
