Hi Adrian, thanks a lot for that clear statement. I will go ahead and submit a feature request; I don't think I'm up to the task of creating a patch myself in a reasonable amount of time. In the meantime I will try to play around with deployment order and see if I can get my EJBs to deploy before ResourceAdapter.start().
