Probably not... but you know sooner or later someone is going to buy
Orion... and the product price will NOT remain anywhere near $1500 OR be
"free" to non-commercial projects !!
I like Orion, but for projects on a budget, I think it is safer and less
costly to maybe go with http://www.ejboss.org/ or
http://www.evidian.com/jonas/index.htm. These are dedicated "open source"
ejb servers.... aaaahh if only Orion would open source.....
Admittedly, I don't know how the above ejb servers compare to orion..... I
know they don't have servlets/jsp... but then there is the open source free
resin...
