jsfejb3 example application is already built in the binary distribution so the ant task to build it looks like it does not do anything.

The directory structure for jsfejb3 example application (located in the gettingstarted.zip) contains all the artifacts from a build. This means when building the example it looks like the ant file is not doing anything. The getting started guide also shows the output of the ant script as if it was doing the full build. This does not cause any issues, it just might be confusing.
