As long as your application can do a JNDI lookup and support RMI (all apps
can) you can use jBoss (or any app server for that matter).

Ask Marc Fleury. My personal guess - no. jBoss lives off its community -
those people that, around the world (belive me!) develop and enhance the
product. No single company will hire them.
> 3) is the JBoss/ZOAP module is released?
jBoss/ZOAP Works pretty well. Dr. Christoph Jung recently added new
functionality to it, so you better get the CVS snapshot.

jBossMQ is working OK, even if it's not a 1.0 version yet. It can exchange
messages with non-Java clients using TCP/IP sockets.

The training link works fine to me. Anyway, here's the link target:
