JSF has the following staging :

   - Development
   - UnitTest
   - SystemTest
   - Production

Werner I was having a look at the CDI spec and, indeed, in the appendix B.8
it talks about a javax.enterprise.inject.deployment package :

"B.8. javax.enterprise.inject.deployment
The package javax.enterprise.inject.deployment contains annotations relating
to deployment types and specialization.
• Annotations: @DeploymentType, @Specializes
• Deployment types: @Production, @Standard"

Strange enough, I can't find the API for this package.
