The ServiceMix integration which was in Geronimo trunk on december, just before the 1.0 was planned, was really outdated and uses one old version (1.0) of spring. We had not enough time at the moment to revive it so the decision to remove it was taken. We now have a working set of gbeans in svn head (http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/servicemix/trunk/servicemix-gbean/) that works much better with servicemix 3.0-SNAPSHOT and a geronimo deployment plan http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/servicemix/trunk/servicemix-gplan/src/plan/plan.xml which needs to be updated to Geronimo 1.0. We are planning to test / document this integration asap, so that users will be able to use it.

The main feature of this new integration is that ServiceMix is now deployed as a real JBI container, which can be used to install standard jbi components and deploy service assemblies / service units. This will be very usefull when used with the new standard jbi components developped for ServiceMix 3.0, mainly the servicemix-lwcontainer, which can be used to deploy (nearly) standard servicemix.xml configuration files. The previous integration could only deploy these files, but was creating one jbi container for each configuration, so that the components could not be wired together. The main problem, for which we currently have a workaround, that would need to be solve for a proper integration is http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-1330.

We will keep informed both servicemix and geronimo user lists as soon as the integration is finished and ready to use.

Cheers,
Guillaume Nodet

After talking with Guillaume Nodet, it became clear that the servicemix integration previously included with geronimo was completely out of date and more or less useless. Guillaume was working on an up to date integration that I believe is included/ hosted at ServiceMix. I'm not sure of its exact status. I would hope that we could include one or two configs in geronimo to include servicemix at least as an installer option.

thanks

Just downloaded Geronimo 1.0 build with Jetty, and ServiceMix is gone. I wonder why?
The release notes file includes this task:
[GERONIMO-1326] - Remove ServiceMix modules / builder from 1.0 branch.

Someone please clarify...
