Is the only difference between the 3 examples the name of the adapter in
jboss-deployment-structure?
If so could we not do either:
* Maven profiles to template these files with the adapter module name
* Use same module name for the adapters?
That would make it a lot easier to make sure the examples are in-sync.

Poms are set up to do this so not a problem.

Not everybody knows how to use Github :) Plus, you need examples tied
to release versions as there may be differences between them.

Simple enough.
