That looks correct. This goes with the other task to be able to parse multiple files
in one parsing deployer.

I don't see why it is critical?

jboss-ra.xml is a new feature in JBoss5 that Weston did only in the old deployer
(which isn't used). So nobody is using this feature except the testsuite.

With the profile service its main use case (being able to override ra.xml properties)
is pretty much redundant.
It was really redundant anyway because you could always just modify the ra.xml

Its only other use would be allow classloader config but in the new deployers you will be able
to add a META-INF/jboss-classloader.xml to achieve the same purpose.

184 is a feature we can do in RC1 since it only affects how deployers are implemented
when they need to parse more than one file, in this case ra.xml and jboss-ra.xml
Currently you write two parsing deployers which is messy.

Since this is done
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBDEPLOY-4

so we should be able to rewrite the RARDeployer which will parse ra.xml/jboss-ra.xml in one go .

Ales , are we ready for it now ?

Vicky, do you have some cycles to complete this task ?
