Re: weblogic 8.1 vs 6.1

[Johan Eltes]

WLS 8.1 finally provides a spec-compliant integration of foreign JMS  
providers, like MQSeries: no more access to WLS transaction manager! It  
also adds pooling of connections factories. But WLS still has some  
milage left in order tp work well with MQSeries (and other foreign JMS  
providers):
- configurable connection pool
- App-server managed threads for Bean-managed MDBs (current  
implementation relies on threading policies of the foreign library)
- Configurable policies for handling of rejected / rollbacked MDBs
- Listener mechanism for CMT MDBs uses a start-transaction -  
wait-until-time-out - rollback strategy for bootstrapping incoming  
messages into JTA transaction, which makes the transaction statistics  
rather use-less.

I am trying to evaluate whether I should use weblogic 6.1 as against

weblogic 6.1 and I want to use the same for new development.

Any suggestions on what might not work in 6.1 or wat is absolutely  
essential in 8.1,

We are using JMS extensively on our project

Any thoughts will be appreciated
