Hi Pete, thanks for your post and please excuse my late response, too.   I 
hardly followed this forum in October and therefore didn't notice earlier that 
you posted a response in this thread.

ok, if one is really supposed to call a component of the parent conversation in 
order to transfer the result of the nested conversation, the behavior looks 
indeed like a bug.    By the way, in the meantime another thread regarding the 
problem was opened by Denis Karpov in late October:
http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=121852

Therefore, as requested and in face of the second thread, I opened a JIRA issue 
at the weekend (you probably have noticed it already). 
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2209

gets added to Seam, in order to avoid having to resort to ugly hacks such as 
writing from the nested conversation to the parent conversation scope.

do you still think this would be useful?

from a technical point of view, it would not be necessary.    It would already 
be a big improvement if it was possible to transfer state to the parent 
conversation by way of an explicit method call (invocation of a component of 
the parent conversation).

Nevetheless, from a software engineering perspective, an output mapper feature 
could still be very useful.  But I'd need to write a more detailed explanation 
about that,  with this post I just want to mention the JIRA case.   And such an 
output mapper feature would have to be carefully designed.
