Since the very beginning Geronimo has worked with other open source
projects to build a complete J2EE solution - OpenEJB is one of those,
Jetty and JOTM are others. However, at the time OpenEJB provided EJB1.1
functionality and quite a few people have worked to bring it up to the
2.1 level - given the size of an EJB project, it's not really surprising
there is overlap in the communities.
Ok, I was just wondering. In a complex project is difficult to relies on
external implementation, mostly when external implementations handles core
things. On the other side is usually good to avoid the NIH anti-pattern. So
you need to reach a balance.
Btw I thought JOTM was GPL. I'm using it too, but seems that its Xid is messing the expected oracle Xid pattern. I'll check that later.
At one point Oracle would accept other peoples xids only if the global and branch ids were exactly 64 bytes long. There were some messages over the weekend on the jotm list about this, they might have fixed it in the last couple of days.
thanks david jencks
