See, that's a critical point, we have total different opinion on what's a standard. Glassfish is not the standard, Tomcat is. EJB3 is not the standard, Spring and Hibernate are. I don't care for a single minute about what Sun is trying to push down developer's throat, I care about what has proven to work in the open source community. Lately Sun improved, but it's just gone from downright wrong (EJB2) to "too little, too late", see EJB3 as a copycat of Hibernate and Spring, JSF sorely failing to become the de facto market dominator, and how much time it's taking to realize that JODA time is an order of magnitude better than standard Java date/time handling just to provide a few examples. If I allow you to force in Sun dependencies, I _expect_ to be able and add my own Hibernate annotation as well. Would you allow me? Given the way you talk, it seems not? It's this "we have the only truth" attitude that's pissing me (and other people) off.
