Primarily, my message was that we had a lot of ideas floating around and
consolidation was needed, followed by action ;) We mostly talked about:
1. Not coupling it with UI controllers (that's an orthogonal concern)
2. Home is a word which few people really get, we should pick something
more applicable like EntityFacade or EntityCRUD
3. The query framework should provide an API which is technology agnostic,
with implementations for JPA and others (room for JDO, nosql, REST)
4. We proposed renaming it to the Seam data framework, since the core
features
revolve around reading and writing entities/resources to
persistence storage (i.e., data)
The UI controllers would likely be more suitable in the UI modules, such as
faces and wicket
