I have to say that is such a pleasure to work with this team.
These ideas would certainly raise Seam to the top.

Sounds good to me, as also the combined jars for various other profiles.
Jason, care to add this to the agenda for next week's IRC meeting and we can
flesh it out a little further?

I suggested this a while back as the "Seam for Web Profile".

 seam-web-profile.jar

 Calling it seam.jar is *way* too ambiguous and is going to do nothing but
lead to confusion. Let's give the stack a name (such as "Seam for Web
Profile") and qualify the jar.

 So +1 to that revised idea :)
