Curt,

I aggree that more flexibility is needed in this area. However I am Slightly
concerned about re-entrant calls to stateful beans. The bean programmer then
has to worry about mutex and stuff, which is what the spec is trying to
avoid.

In the case of the stateless case, the container can route the invocations
to pooled bean instances. No harm no foul. I've never quite grocked why the
limit in the stateless case. Conservatism and perhaps consistency in the
minds of the spec designers???

Regards,

-Chris.
