You can say that methods in an interface are abstract, since the
interface doesn't contain an implementation.
But I see no reason for declaring them abstract, since the abstract keyword
only has meaning when used in a class definition.
Sun doesn't declare methods in the interfaces abstract -- check the Javadoc
generated from EJB 2.0 PFD2 compared to jboss-j2ee.
I think we -- and I would be willing to do that -- should clean the
interfaces such that they don't use the abstract keyword.
And a bit more Javadoc wouldn't hurt ;)
Cheers,
Jesper
