This means that you need an entirely started geronimo server to
deploy any ejbs. In particular this is inconsistent with the idea
of the offline deployer, which we need to assume won't open any ports.
Previously we went to a lot of trouble to make sure that every bit
of deployment code ran without any runtime components started. I
would like to know if this new dependency is intentional, and
essential. I don't think we should introduce such a very large
change in philosophy about the geronimo server architecture
without discussion.
Should be easy to fix. Is there an offline deployer somewhere I can
update?
