Is there some kind of consensus as to when the lifespan gets applied to the
beans? For instance, if two JSP pages have a <usebean> declaration that
refers to the same bean, but with different specified lifespans, what
happens? And in the 0.92 "Model #2", how does the servlet specifiy the
lifespan of the objects? Can it?
I don't mind waiting for the 1.0 spec. But it would be really helpful to
have some kind directon so that my apps don't get smashed by semantic
changes in the 0.9x->1.0 transition.
