--------------------------------------

RE: a) you were looking in the wrong place

Wouldn't be the first time. :)

RE: b) the spec did a very very bad job of showing you the right place to look (actually it showed you the wrong place!)

I think the issue is that the BeanManager is the "thing" you look up in JNDI. The thing you look up in JNDI is usually the interface that end users deal with not an internal API. That said I looked at it with a "Spring perspective" because that is what I have been dealing with for the past 9 years or so.
