Sounds good to me, as also the combined jars for various other
profiles. Jason, care to add this to the agenda for next week's IRC
meeting and we can flesh it out a little further?

I suggested this a while back as the "Seam for Web
Profile".
seam-web-profile.jar
Calling it seam.jar is *way* too ambiguous and is going to do nothing
but lead to confusion. Let's give the stack a name (such as "Seam for
Web Profile") and qualify the jar.
So +1 to that revised idea :)

That's a fair point, however to address this (and for simplicity's
sake) what if we were to provide a combined jar that included most
of the modules? I would say that the following list represents
the "core" of Seam:
Solder
Catch
Config
International
JMS
Mail
Persistence
REST
Security
Servlet
Validation
We would simply call this combined jar seam.jar, and on top of
that, the developer would also add dependencies for whatever view
technology they're using (i.e. seam-faces, errai or seam-wicket),
and then the extra features if they require them (Cron, JCR,
Remoting, Reports, Social, etc). That should greatly reduce the
number of jar files in a deployment.
