NEW ISSUE: Resolution of Issue 201 is insufficient

Target: CAA Sepc CD04-Rev2

Description:  Issue 201 expanded
the definition of @Remotable to have @Target(TYPE,FIELD,PARAMETER) - FIELD
and PARAMETER were added.  This is insufficient since JCA90053 states:
The @Remotable annotation is valid only on a Java interface, a Java class,
a field, a setter method, or a constructor parameter.  It MUST NOT
appear anywhere else. and The POJO specs states (lines 532-534 of CD02-rev2)

remotable attribute of <interface.java>
child element is omitted unless the interface class has no @Remotable annotation
and there is a @Remotable annotation on the field, setter method or constructor
parameter, in which case the <interface.java> element has remotable="true"

and (lines 600-605 of CD02-rev2)

An unannotated field or setter method
is a reference if:

·        its
type is an interface annotated with @Remotable

·        its
type is an array where the element type of the array is an interface annotated
with @Remotable

·        its
type is a java.util.Collection where the parameterized type of the Collection
or its member type is an interface annotated with @Remotable

Proposal: change the @Target fro @Remotable
to : @Target(TYPE,METHOD,FIELD,PARAMETER)
