Why solve a problem that doesn't exist?

[Jack Frosch]

Open source projects typically solve a problem not addressed by 
commercial vendors, even if the problem is just the price being charged 
for the commercial solution. Yet we already have a very popular, 
open-source J2EE container in JBoss.

Why must people's egos get in the way of common sense in our business as 
in so many?  Like Microsoft, it appears that Apache.org just wants to 
control everything - and that's just such a lamentable motivation, 
whether held by Microsoft or Apache.org.

How about swallowing your pride, giving up your aspirations of 
controlling every popular, open-source, significant project, and just 
embrace JBoss with support, MBean development, etc.?

Frankly, I'm just dismayed by the Geronimo project and the pettiness of 
the egos driving Apache.org.
