+# Quick and dirty migration of Seam annotations to CDI equivalents.

+# To use this script:
+# $ shopt -s globstar
+# $ etc/scripts/seam2cdi.sh **/src/**/*.java **/src/**/*.groovy
+#
+# Note: Seam components (POJOs) with no declared scope (ie Event scope)
+# will become @Dependent by default, not @RequestScoped.  Our unscoped
+# components all appear to be stateless services, so this should be okay.
