Also, nothing wrong with elba forking the code. That's open source at work. What would be wrong would be Geronimo using elba, as elba must be GPL'd. Geronimo is a different product to JBoss. JBoss is 'free-software' with all the viral/GNU trappings. Geronimo will be 'open-source-software', with all the useful-in-commercial environments/BSD trappings. > No need for complexia : > http://www.softwarereality.com/programming/ejb/index.jsp > Users want KISS. No need for an EJB project. Not doing a project because a proportion of the developer community do not believe in it is not a good reason. I do not believe in JSF/Struts' MVC Model 2 crap. So let's scrap those projects. > (did anyone vote? This is not regular) Regular for what? I'm sure incubation rules are being followed with Geronimo. The only criticism in how things have been done with Gerry is that the announcement was perhaps too inviting and that Geronimo is not a Jakarta project. > .V > > ps: > > I think ASF endoring SUN's EJB, makes no sense now, to late. > > http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=SUNW&d=c&k=c2&a=v&p=e5,m20,m100,m200,e200&t=2y&l=off&z=l&q=l > vs: > http://viva.sourceforge.net/ > They are trading near liquidation, the value of cash in bank. Coding Java is not dependent on Sun's commercial position, or are you suggesting we should switch to C# because Sun look so weak?
