Some of my unscheduled jira issues that I think should be sl

I just wanted to bring up some of my jira issues that I think are easy to fix and/or relatively important, and I think should be included in 2.0GA (or at least 2.0.1). I'm not making demands, just suggesting things that I think will be beneficial for Seam.

1.
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1762
- Very simple fix; bug breaks session usage in tests

2.
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1257
- This can be very confusing, especially if a newbie tries to put components in collections. Potentially a two-sentence documentation fix. Or apply my patch.

3.
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1647
- This could be a one-sentence fix. And I think it's a very important thing to document. Otherwise, a newbie might do something like

@In String name;

setName(String name){
 this.name = name;
}

and be very confused why component.setName("joe") is effectively a no-op.

4.
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1940
Wrong documentation is very bad. Easy to fix (remove a paragraph).

If there are ways I can contribute to fixing these, let me know.

And many thanks to the Seam dev team for their hard work. Especially Pete.

Oh, silly forum.

The title should read "Some of my unscheduled jira issues that I think should be slated for 2.0"

+1, I've scheduled it (though Norman might deschedule it ;) )

I want Gavin to review this, so I don't think its going to happen in the GA timeframe. Can you add an item to the SeamProblemsFAQ as a start?

This needs double checking (that the docs are wrong, and its not a bug.)

If there are ways I can contribute to fixing these, let me know.

Documentation patches (especially when it's a concept thats badly documented) are great as then we get a better understanding of whats wrong with the current explanation!

Thanks Matt!

Hey Pete, any chance you could also ask Gavin to make a call on http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1814? It'd be nice to have that cleared up soon.

Thanks
