With new additions to packaging guidelines for EE APIs, we have to pick
1 implementation for each API.
I have made initial proposal for these APIs into the draft[1]. My
criterias:
1. if JDK provides it, we are done. Packages should remove this
dependency from pom.xml files

This should be based on the default JDK version provided by Fedora,
which is currently JDK 7 for Fedora 17 / 18.
2. Prefer packages with smaller and simpler BR/R chains. Good example
being javax.servlet.jsp where I preferred glassfish-jsp over tomcat
or other implementations.

# of dependencies is one of the first concerns I heard when I began
telling developers about the JBoss AS package. If they are necessary,
it's reasonable to explain. When a dependency doesn't seem at all
related, people start to develop a bad opinion of the package. It's not
just about disk space, it's also about perception.
