[webbeans-dev] Impl/Model merger etc

Hi, I like the merging of the model into the bean, one less hierarchy to keep in mind when implementing. I'm not quite sure I get the XmlSimpleBean, though. Looking at e.g. AbstractClassBean.initInitializerMethods(), it is split into two parts based on the isDefinedInXml(). Couldn't the initInitializerMethods() itself had been abstract and implemented in different ways in the subclasses? Another (unrelated) thing that came to mind is the implementation of the Web Bean itself. Is it operating against the client proxy or is the client proxy merged as an interceptor in the overall Web Bean? How similar is the implementation going to be to the Seam Component/interceptor stack/invocation context stuff? PS. Did the spec announcement ever run on InfoQ? --- Nik
