[jboss-user] [EJB 3.0] - Can't find branch for FD8 release, posted documentation is o

[gcomnz]

To start off, before this relatively negative post: THANKS!!! JBOSS is the sh*t. I love the attitude, I love the ethic, and I love the risk taking. This is business as it should be, and it rocks.

That said:

1. The EJB 3.0 releases don't contain source, making it difficult to attach source in IDEs for debugging

2. I've been searching for a long time in the CVS repository and can't seem to find the version tag for releases, meaning that I can't find the accurate sources for what I'm using in order to get around problem 1

3. The online Javadocs are *** seriously ***  out of date, meaning I can't attach to those in the IDE either.

4. Responsiveness on this forum is lackluster at the very best. I'm a paying customer, so I get to complain about that vociferously ;-)

In any case: I think JBoss' future is closely tied to it's EJB 3.0 product's success. Just an opinion. But I'd imagine it's a reasonable one. So I suggest some better packaging, QA (on the Install doc, for example, that's a pitiful situation), and document/source policies. Look to Seam/Hibernate for examples. The source is in their distro. Frankly they package too much in their distro, but its the right choice, and it makes life easy.
