[seam-dev] laying the tracks for Seam 3

[Dan Allen]

I just checked in a new example to Seam 3, servlet-permalink. It is a very
simple blog with comments (you can't post a new entry yet). This example is
very important because it demonstrates the view parameters (i.e., page
parameters) that Red Hat (Pete and I) contributed to JSF 2 (hence the name
permalink). It of course uses JSR-299 beans as well, but no database.

I am moving forward with the convention of prefixing WAR projects that
target a servlet environment with servlet-. Thus, I'm thinking about having
a cooresponding prefix for Java EE projects (EARs). I propose the prefix
jee-. So I may change booking to jee-booking. Thoughts?

Of course, there may be other prefixes in the future like wicket-booking and
groovy-booking. I just want the example name to help poeple understand what
it is demonstrating. Just trying to find the best approach.
