You failed to keep up the old stuff so please don't make it sound like you're coming to the rescue. I'm not so sure I want a total refactoring of the old JMS in the remoting subsystem and the interceptor chains and such. The current JMS rewrite by Nathan, Adrian, and Bela is going quite well and we will be replacing the old system in the fall. What I don't want is a CVS HEAD of the old JMS that doesn't look like the 3.2 series since it will be much harder to migrate 3.2 fixes to a CVS HEAD that has been totally refactored. The old JMS needs to live a bit beyond 4.0's release and 4.0 will not be released until the late late fall, between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I guess what I'm saying is that a lot of users will still depend on the old JMS for at least another year and we need some to have fluidity between 3.2 and 4.0. We're already experiencing the pain of an unnecessary rewrite of the Entity Container that is making it difficult to merge fixes in 3.2 to 4.0. I don't want the same thing to happen with a codebase that is going to be retired eventually anyways and that needs to live in depracated mode for awhile. > Nathan, > > Your doing great work in the peer based JMS arena.
