True but even then weblogic had a much better community and documentation base. 6 of one...

Resin EE has improved. For that matter if you compare WebLogic 6.0 from that time period when you were working with Resin CMP to the 7.0 release of WebLogic you would notice that WebLogic has improved too. WebLogic works really well now. It had problems back then too. It takes a few releases to get the kinks out. WebLogic 6.1 does not fully implement EJB CMP 2.0. WebLogic 7.0 does. > I would add to your list. > > Is it well documented? > Is it easy to configure? > Does it have community support?
