By luck the JIRA message was prominent in my morning e-mail pile, so you got a response before the deluge buried me. :-)

Yeah, but then Adrian kindly discovered EJBTHREE-1109. ;-)  Which led to EJBTHREE-1110 (add a home load balance policy attribute), and with that the annotation is pretty EJB3 specific.

So, I don't mind the annotation moving into ejb3-ext-api.

Hadn't drunk enough coffee; wasn't thinking clearly.  If the goal is just to have no dependency from ejb3-ext-api and ejb3-impl to ha-client, it's not necessary. The aspects module classes have a dependency on ha-client, and that would "leak" back into ejb3-core.  But ejb3-core is probably going to have the ha-client dependency anyway, via the clustered proxies.

BTW, the above statement is based on my very vague understanding of the purpose of ejb3-impl vs. ejb3-core.  If what I said makes no sense, please tell me.
