Hi George > The view on the configuration should be task-oriented, not > file-oriented.
Do you have an example for that ? I know BEA WL 5 and IBM WebSphere 3.5 and both did not provide configuration on their UI. > It's so easy to understand why a GUI is necessary.

Mostly because the heavy configuration stuff is not added to the UI. A UI makes sense to discover all the services and deployments and get statistics out of it which JSR-77 should do so. But I am convinced that configuring a server is advanced stuff and should not be made too easy otherwise it will break all the time. An application server is not a volatile system with respect to configuration.
