ok so two questions.  Should we do this before v1.0?  Sounds like
yes.  Secondly I'm unsure of abstracting db:sql-type, mainly because I
dont know that we can, as opposed to knowing we cant.  I see that with
XDoclet you should be able to create an app, that has the correct
ejb-jar.xml _and_ however many other dd that are required for jboss,
orion, wl, ws, etc, etc...  this means that if jboss and orion and ws all
require db info about the persistent-field, but they require that
information in a different form, we'd need to create seperate tags... I
suppose I'm just unsure of what the different vendor's requirements
are.  Does that make sense?  As long as @persistent-field
db:sql-type="VARCHAR" is going to be valid across all vendors (which I
suppose it is, VARCHAR is just out of the sql92 specs isn't it?), then I'm
happy, but I dont know for sure myself if this is so.  Does that make
sense?

on the ws front - I will chat to the guy at work (Minh Yie) who did the ws
stuff and try and get myself in a position to finish it off tonight (or
start finishing it off anyway!)...
