I don't know how TCKs are handled, but I usually require them to be

And please do not confuse the JBoss TCK implementation with our
OpenWebBeans Tck _Integration_. I will only checkin the TCK
Integration code and not the TCKs themselfs. The code written by
JBoss guys are only referenced via maven dependencies. This is
SNAPSHOT version currently [1], but they will have to release a
tagged version shortly after the Spec is final.
Once the spec goes final, the JCP will make the TCK available. We'd
obtain the "official" TCK from the JCP. The ASF has a JCP site (http://apache.org/jcp/
), mailing list, and a process for obtaining official TCK's from the
JCP.
Since the WebBeans TCK is being implemented in the open with an ASL
license, we're able to obtain a snapshot of the TCK prior to the spec
going final. Until the spec goes final, TCK results are meaningless.
We can't make any claims regarding compliance. It is, however, a
useful testing tool...
[1] so for executing the TCK tests currently one has to also run:
$> svn co http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/webbeans/tck/trunk tck
$> mvn clean install
This sounds pretty good to me...
