IMO it is really lame to need to certify a Java product on a billion different operating systems... Isn't Sun's Java motto still write once run everywhere? Or does that not apply to certification of j2ee platforms? Write once certify everywhere?!

Geir,

Can you enumerate the specific requirements for "certification"?

You have a valid point about OS X but if we certified on SuSE 9.3 is it not still certified release on SuSE 10? Or even jumping from SuSE to Red Hat or even Solaris x86 or SPARC. I'm curious about how the certification treats all these possible permutations (yikes ;-0 )

Would it be acceptable to say something like:

J2EE certified Release (with some link to a page that describes the exact certification environment) and lists *nix as a general platform?

I guess I'm really curious about what certified means based on your comment below.

They aren't tested.

Can we put a separate section (or a separate page) for the non- certified downloads?
