All,
We've implemented the new EJB 3.1 javax.ejb.Singleton bean type.
Singletons are a new type of Session bean being added to the EJB 3.1
specification. They provide some much needed functionality to the
world of EJB and will be part of the coming OpenEJB 3.1 release.

Enjoy the first ever @Singleton bean implementation!
A large part of our motivation for implementing this early is to
gather feedback for the specification itself. This is one of those
rare times where you can not only give feedback about our
implementation but about the actual API as well!
Give it a try and let us know what you think!
