[NEW ISSUE] @Remotable annotation incorrectly marked as optional in Java EEspec

[Mike Edwards <mike_edwards@uk.ibm.com>]

Raiser:        
       Mike Edwards (on behalf of Java EE subcommittee)

Target:        
       Java EE Specification

Description:

Appendix B - row "@Remotable"
- this labels the @Remotable annotation as "May be supported",

but if an @Reference field points to
some SCA service which is defined in terms of a Java interface,
that service would *HAVE* to use @Remotable
on the interface.  

As a result, @Remotable cannot validly
be optional.


Proposal:

This row should be changed to "MUST
be supported" to avoid the need for an extended EJB to 
have to produce a copy of the interface
with @Remotable removed.


Yours,  Mike.
