Like I said, they posed some great questions, summarized below: - When is JEE5 support coming? - What is XBean and how does it compare to Spring and GBean? When and how will it be integrated into Geronimo? What does the 'X' in 'XBean' stand for (I just stood there blushing on the last one ;-) - Several detailed questions about how the plugin dependency system works and the other mechanics of plugins and plugin repositories - What maven plugins does Geronimo provide and does Geronimo provide any ant tasks for deployment, etc? - One person had tried to build trunk last month so he could contribute a JACC module but gave up after a couple days of problems with maven. I told him the build is in MUCH better shape now and to try again. - Just how customizable is the server? For example, someone asked how to go about swapping activemq with websphere mq. - Besides the licensing terms, what truly sets Geronimo apart from jboss and glassfish? - What is IBM's interest in Geronimo and how are other companies such as Oracle, BEA, and Sun positioned in this space?
Will we get answers to these questions, too? It's not fair to share it with people out there and leaving us with questions with no answers ;-) I'm going to speak about Apache Geronimo (that I think will in turn be a chance to speak about ASF, open source and such stuff) at the Warszawa JUG on November 7th and would appreciate any help to show its beauty.
