"but this turned out to be surprisingly straightforward"
Exactly! The real fun is deciding the style of the annotations and what
functionality we want. Easy hit are we need an annotation to replace each
existing key-value pair that can go in the activation-config. More fun
items will be around how far we want to take the arguments into the
annotated listener method.
Nigel, are you at DevoxxUK? There's a Hack-day on Wednesday and I'd love
to do some side-by-side hacking as the opportunity is there and is
extremely rare to get.
Also, hello Rüdiger! Sorry didn't get a chance to respond before :) If
you'll be at DevoxxUK as well, we could have some real fun.
