[seam-dev] persistence module page drafted

[Emmanuel Bernard]

I skimmed through the document.

I think the transaction API is a bad idea. http://seamframework.org/Seam3/PersistenceModuleOverview#H-SimplifiedTransactionAPI
It's a major issue that everyone and his dog reinvents a Tx API where JTA is almost perfect.

I agree with the non-intuitiveness of using getStatus() (esp. pre Enums). But that's nothing a small helper class can fix.

The next step is to identify what features to tackle first by sketching out a roadmap (alpha1, alpha2, etc with bullets next to them). I'll take the first stab at it.

Developers are mostly likely going to need this module to write an app, primarily if they are trying to avoid using EJBs. I still believe that we should advocate EJB 3.1, though, despite working on this module. We could consider it a half-way house for people who have been burned by EJB in the past :)
