> The 2.0.0.Alpha series changed the return type of HATarget.getReplicants from ArrayList to List. This is breaking EJB3 (see EJBTHREE-2112) even though they actually handle the return value as a List.
> EJB3 needs a compatible interface for the 1.x series (for their usage in EAP 5.x) and the 2.x series (for AS 6 and later). So, solution is, in ha-server-api trunk and in a 1.2 branch:
> 1) Restore ArrayList as the getReplicants() return type.
> 2) Add public List<?> getReplicantList()
> 3) Deprecate getReplicants()
> 4) Release a 2.0.0.Alpha5 and a 1.2.0.Final
> 5) Move AS trunk to 2.0.0.Alpha5 so EJB3 testsuite can work
> 6) At some date, remove all AS trunk usage of the deprecated method
> 7) When the JBPAPP_5_1 branch is available for commits again, move it to 1.2.0
> 8) THEN move ejb3-proxy-clustered to 1.2.0, and have it use the new method.
