Hmmm... It is the same as in the corresponding section of the session
beans and 4.3.2Dependency Injection. And java:comp/EJBContext is
mentioned only in its own section currently.

If you feel that the spec needs to mention the lookup in all 3 places
(and any other that you can think of), please file a JIRA.

Thanks.

Will try to fix - this is how the file was imported by the framemaker.

Thanks again for the review.
