Yes.

It is a matter of proper and clear documentation of our public API - some of 
which is the JEE one.

I'm all for that. If you want the JEE APIs to be grouped under a common group

I'm not talking only about SVN here - but the full development cycle. This 
would also mean that we will have X JIRA administrators for the javaee 
project, each with their own component(s) and version identifiers.

No snapshot dependencies - period. They are the root of all evil.
