Common Annotations for Java EE5

[Joe Bohn <jo...@earthlink.net>]

I was looking into what is necessary to include common annotations for 
Java EE 5 compliance.  I think it's pretty minimal but thought I should 
throw it out just to verify I'm not missing anything.

I presume that the actual implementation would be including in whatever 
JVM we're running on so there should be no need to hunt down or 
implement anything directly for Geronimo.  Does that sound right?

That just leaves the need to get a geronimo version of the spec created. 
  It looks like Dave Blevins has already done most of this (presumably 
finding it necessary for the EJB 3 support?).   The only annotation that 
I don't see included from the spec is javax.annotation.Generated.  I can 
add that annotation into the spec and validate the others.  Or course I 
would eventually need to add a dependency on the annotation spec to 
rmi-naming  as well so that it will be included in our future images.

Is there anything else that I would need to do here to cover the common 
annotation items prior to the tck validation?

Thanks,
Joe
