In Relation To

We are happy to announce the 3rd developer snapshot of our JCA 1.6 implementation.

For those who are joining us at JBoss World in Chicago this week here are the talks that we are set to have about or touch upon JBoss Tools & Developer studio.

Annotation 1.0.0.Alpha2 brings a lot of changes :)

The dust is settling around JSR-303 and we are happy to release Hibernate Validator 4.0.0.CR1. With this release we will be going into feature freeze, especially since we aligned it with JBoss AS 5.2 and Glassfish for integration.

This is the first release towards supporting JPA 2. Most of the APIs are implemented. Some know limitations for this beta include:

In the 2 years since I decided to switch Hibernate over to use Maven for its build tool I don't think that Maven has lived up to making builds any easier. Quite the contrary, in fact. Previously though there was not really been any other option. At that time ant/ivy combo was just starting to gain traction. Not to mention that I do like the notion of build-by-convention which Ant just does not provide.

Anil Saldhana just pointed out this article about how you can use JBoss Identity Management to provide SSO capabilities to your Seam application. It discusses a couple of approaches.
