Hey, these guys have open source too: http://jcorporate.com/html/products/productsfm.html
Lets raid them next, fork the code and put in ASF!? Any other projects?
Sad.

Bottom line, would you rather contribute to a project that is led by an
arrogant wanna be dictator or by a community of the world's brightest?
I choose the latter.

FYI.
Other strange things are happening as well such as blocked JBoss cvs accounts and blocked mails to JBoss mailing lists. This is really becoming ugly.

Apache J2EE effort.
First a bit of history. I offered EJBoss when it was 4 month old to
Apache. The guys at Jakarta vote OK unanimously and their vote was
overridden by Brian Behlendorf. The reason from behlendorf was that
they 'were not the dust bin of open source projects'. I heard the
Apache crowd got offended for me calling them "a bunch of fat ladies
drinking tea" at a later date when they were running around telling us
how to run our project. We had reports that this was the non-official
reason for this "challenge". Challenge accepted. More seriously as we overtake them in corporate penetration and business model, I guess they are finally looking beyond the HTTPD C codebase and imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
We are the real thing, all we have so far is talk and announcement,
announcements are a dime a dozen. Apache code on this project has yet
to be released and then production reached and then maturity bla bla
bla. I have little comment on the project except to say that JBOSS IS
NOT A PART OF IT. In a misleading announcement Apache chairman's Gregcan't be
Stein implied JBoss was participating and that JBOSS CODE WAS PART OF
THE PROJECT. No current JBoss developers are participating in the
Apache J2EE project and since JBoss is LGPL only full copyright
holders can offer JBoss code under other licenses. Bottom line? JBossforked by apache. As our customers know, we are a business, aseriousone and we seriously believe in and defend "professional open source".
That includes legal protection of IP. Make no mistakes, JBoss will AGGRESIVELY defend its copyright and LGPL license.
