In that case then I would assume that this isn't a configuration option then but rather part of the install processing. This way there would not be a case where the user could accidentally deploy apps before choosing or changing the web container.

Assuming that the container selection is part of the installation then it should also address my last concern about "pre-deployed" applications. I suppose we would just make the deployment of these applications part of the installation instead of part of the build.

I think its reasonable to choose one before starting to deploy applications. Dynamically (easily) switching WebContainers would be nice but I don't think its a must have. I agree with the easy to choose at initial deployment.

I don't know about others, but I was referring to an easy way to setup jetty or tomcat just once before people deploy apps. As far as pre-deployed apps, no idea how to work that out.

I'm still not sure if I completely understand the approach for "easy switching from Jetty->Tomcat". - If applications have already been deployed to say Jetty before the switch is made, then are they functional in Tomcat? - If not, can the same application be deployed in Tomcat such that it doesn't affect the Jetty application if the switch is reversed at some time in the future? - Finally, how are applications that must be "pre-deployed" in each container managed (for example example the web console)?

LAST ISSUES
  - Easy switching from Jetty -> Tomcat
- Snapshots (Javamail & Axis=>Dims, jUDDI & Scout=>Geir, ServiceMix=>Hiram, tmpOrb=>Dain)
  - Version number of some sort in the schemas?
Is there anything else people think *must* be there to ship?
THE FINAL STUFF
Again, we have to run the TCK on the final binary. It would be great if we could cut the final release by Wednesday and be finished TCK testing by Friday. To get there we will have the standard checklist of stuff to do:
 1. clean the jira
 2. create release notes
 3. update readme files
4. Change the version number in etc/project.properties and the plugins
 5. Create our tag
 6. Cut and sign the binary and source distributions
Then it's just test and vote, both take two days and can be done at the same time.
Any details I've missed?
