EJB 1.1 differences from EJB 1.0

The main change in EJB 1.1 involves the packaging of components. EJB 1.1 uses an XML deployment descriptor, and allows abstraction of container-specific resource references used within the source code. In addition, there are minor changes to the Java interfaces and classes.
