I think this is a very good post.
Many developers are singing the praises of EJB and J2EE, but until there
are widely publicised EJB-success stories, then I think managers will be
reluctant to bet their infrastructure on EJB. I think it is very
commendable of Chris to be so open about Gemstone projects.
How about other vendors? Why not advertise some of your EJB-successes?

paul.
