So a funny thing happened on the way to the theater :)

So the 10,000 foot perspective is that we are creating a conversion tool to convert the prior openejb-jar.xml into the new set of descriptors (geronimo-openejb.xml, new openejb-jar.xml, jpa entity- mappings.xml). It is expected that all existing plans will work and no one will have to or even *should* migrate just yet.

We are doing this for two reasons:

1. There is significant investment in current descriptor format. These come to mind:
      - TCK
      - DayTrader
      - iTests
      - Samples
      - All documentation to date
      - All user-land apps to date

It seems we ditched the openejb-jar.xml documentation anyway. I went ahead and added it into GMOxDOC20 and GMOxDOC21.

I also noticed that these docs were also left:

http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GMOxDOC12/geronimo-web.xml
http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GMOxDOC12/geronimo-ra.xml
http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GMOxDOC12/geronimo-application.xml

We support backwards compatibility of our plans, so these docs should be fine for the most part.

Is there some rational for not including them?
