As per the EJB 2.0 (pfd2) specifications it is possible to pacakge an EJB
1.1 Container mananged persistence bean in a EJB 2.0 compliant jar using the
cmp-version tag. In my opinion this might not serve any useful purpose
because:

1) A EJB 1.1 CMP cannot have local interfaces and hence cannot participate
in Relationships.
2) It is mandatory for the EJB 2.0 container to support jars which conform
to EJB 1.1 specification.

It made sense to have this tag in the previous version ( public drafts and
pfd) because they allowed EJB 1.1 Bean to be the target of a relationships.
With that removed in the proposed final Draft 2 the cmp-verison tag does not
have much relevance.

Providing suport for cmp-version tag would be trivial if the container
supports EJB 1.1 version but I feel that would be better to keep the EJB 1.1
beans in seprate jars.
