Mark Struberg commented on CDI-129:
-----------------------------------

Btw, I do agree with you that we need to get a common understanding about how Modularity should work. The BDA approach was way too restrictive but a flat structure doesn't work neither.

Also the CDI spec prominently uses the terminus tecnicus 'bean' for 5 different things:

* Bean<T>
* the class which gets scanned and might lead to 0..n Bean<T>
* the Contextual Reference
* the Contextual Instance
* the Type on the Injection Point

Even in the aforementioned paragraph 5.1 many those 5 meanings are perfectly mixed up.

> Since @ApplicationScoped currently is defined in 6.5.2 as to be 'like in the Servlet specification' this means that you will get a new instance for every WebApplication (WAR file).
> There is currently no specified CDI scope for providing a single shared instance for a whole EAR.
> We could (ab-)use @Singleton for that, but this is currently not well defined at all.
> Alternatively we could introduce an own new annotation like @EnterpriseScoped or likes.
