Yep, this needs updating. I've had the following action item on my list, but having gotten to them yet. I'll throw it out there just in case someone else is interested in filling in.
- Document which Seam modules work, how to build Seam, how to test Seam code (Arquillian)
I've also had this blog post draft sitting in a text file for a while. Might be good to build on it and get it out there. Of course, it depends on the information in the referenced URLs being correct ;)
We would definitely be interested in your participation with Seam. If you are interested in working on Seam 2, the best way to start is to see if there are any issues you would like to challenge yourself with tackling:

If you are ready to get started working in Java EE 6, then I encourage you to join in the Seam 3 development. It's an exciting time to get involved with Seam 3 because the foundation is currently being set and there is lots of room for growth. If you haven't read it yet, start with the Weld 1.0.0 reference guide (or challenge yourself with the CDI specification):
http://seamframework.org/Documentation/SeamDocumentation#H-WeldReferenceDocumentation
Then, you can think about what modules would interested you most that are listed on this page:
http://seamframework.org/Documentation/Seam3Modules
If you want to start building Seam 3, here are the steps:

We also need good examples so that people can appreciate the services that Seam provides. We can port examples from Seam 2, but we are also looking for fresh ideas. If you have one, share it here:
http://seamframework.org/Documentation/ExampleIdeas
We look forward to hearing from you. Remember, getting started with Seam in the community is a great way to gain the respect of peers, which can lead to speaking engagements, better jobs, or even to be hired by Red Hat, if those sorts of things interest you.
