Java EE 6: Moving in a right direction

The Pragmatic Craftsman :: Simplicity from complexity : by Stanley Kubasek ::

I just read an overview of the Java EE 6 release. It looks like Java EE is becoming simpler, smaller, and less configuration hungry. Glad to that.

Few things that sound exciting to me: WebBeans, Profiles, JPA 2, JSF 2.

It’s probably a year or so away. I wish the process moved a bit faster.
