Experts,

The document on the spec download page named " EJB API Groups
Definitions and Rules with Embeddable Container
<http://java.net/projects/ejb-spec/downloads/download/p416-435.pdf>"
contains the updated version of the 16.1 section up-to the updated
section 18.3.1 in the Embeddable Container to make sure no one expects
it to support .war files by default.

Unfortunately the FrameMaker didn't allow me to pick and choose the
pages to save as a pdf file. So the pages that you need to pay attention
to are 2-4 (417-419) and the last one (435).

If you have any concerns, please say so ASAP.

thanks,
-marina
