I'm the creator of Hibernate, a popular object/relational persistence solution for Java, and Seam, an application framework for enterprise Java. I've also contributed to the Java Community Process standards as Red Hat representative for the EJB, JPA, JSF specifications and spec lead of the CDI specification. At Red Hat, I'm currently working on a secret project which will be revealed some time in early 2011.

William Drai has blogged about his experience integrating Granite DS and CDI.

Our feeling is that JCDI is a perfect fit for Flex RIAs with an event-driven architecture. JCDI applications look extremely clean and even though JBoss Seam provides a lot more features, they do not necessarily make sense with a RIA front-end.

The mapping to Flex does look very clean to me. I especially like what William has done with mapping CDI events into the client. Very nice, and very faithful to CDI.
