Actually the JavaEE principal/subject model in PicketBox is what is
termed PicketBox Legacy in the following diagram:
https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/SECURITY/SecurityProjectsArchitecture
Before moving your security work from Apache Deltaspike to PicketLink,
we were already in the works to provide security for applications in
JavaSE environment.
https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/SECURITY/Java+Application+Security
These projects are all housed at:
https://github.com/picketbox
Some of them such as picketbox-cdi, picketbox-deltaspike and
picketbox-solder need to nuked but the other projects are all valuable
code in JavaSE environments.
I'm *definitely not* saying that PicketBox is not valuable, in fact I'm really
saying it's very valuable, and that as such it should be part of our security brand
"PicketLink".
As things like Fabric/JBoss Everywhere come more into the picture, then Java SE is going
to become more and more important.
I think it was Lincoln who said "for PicketLink, let's start with Java SE, get a
really solid core, and then go from there to Java EE".

one of the steps we'll be taking is to consolidate the various PicketLink projects
into a single project and presenting this as the "go to" solution for

submodules of the PicketLink project, with "CDI" renamed to "Core")
and the plan is to eventually merge the social and federation modules also.
