Hi Wayne, You are right.
As long as there is a workaround, I mean user can put there own jboss-app.xml under application/META-INF/*.xml i don't care. And my meaning was JBOSS can support even if you don't provide this <version>5</version> TAG in your jboss-app.xml. Then it should not be mandatory by MAVEN too as jboss didn't make this element as mandatory element there side. That's all i wanted to say. Yes i know my work around for this. But wanted to share my thought to MAVEN community also wanted to take MAVEN users opinion on this. And i always say that i like MAVEN USERS group very much as it's really healthy discussion and thoughts i get from MAVEN USERS group. Thanks again.
