Just for the record, any time you need to manually modify config.xml
to get Geronimo to start or work correctly, please please file a Jira
issue with the details -- we need to fix those regardless of what
technology the console uses.
Personally, I'm not so keen on a console that runs without the server
running, but I'm open to discussion on it. It doesn't matter so much
to me whether the console is web or Swing. But personally, I'd be
more inclined to refactor it all to use the Spring portlet framework
than to refactor it into Swing.
Thanks,

That is a good suggestion.
I agree with your opinion about webapps.
Especially during development it seems, that using a component to
configure the component which it is dependent on, is increasing risks.
I had several times to manually modify config.xml to get G started again
Personally I would prefer an application based on Eclipse because this
could be nicely integrated with the plugin for launching G.
