Yes, you're right... I was talking from a Dev perspective...
But, How much is (I mean money & trouble) to become a licensee for J2EE?
And if your product don't pass Sun's tests (I don't know about OrCAS, but I
know Oracle App Server), is it worth the trouble... apart of being listed in
Sun's Java site?
Thanks

Technically you could get an 'OEM license' by becoming a J2EE licensee
(as Orbware have recently) but I have to agree with the previous comments
that nobody in their right minds would want to try and turn J2EE RI into
a production quality application server.
<vendor>
We built the OrCAS Enterprise Server from the ground up and didn't even
look at any of the J2EE RI code - it would have been a massive engineering
feat to refactor an product of that size and of no business advantage to us.
