@Max Spring hardly has them.
Maybe it's because they do a good amount of effort to take the pain away from the users: they detect which appserver-version it is and do the specific stuff then. They even detect the jdk version for certain things. Weld-servlet already has a bit of code like this, to enable servlet injection, but there's still a lot of stuff that needs to be done by the users to make a war portable.

> It should especially not require different content in the same file: that makes it almost impossible to solve.
> "Maven profiles" are NOT a solution: you should only build once during a release (and on hudson for every commit).
> The build output shouldn't differ based on the profile or build platform (strong maven guideline).
> Furthermore, it should be possible to do exploded war deployments straight from the IDE to different appservers (jboss 7, jetty, tomcat) without having to run maven.
> Similar for arquillian tests.
> See dependent issues for the specific things that cause problems.
