JBoss ready for enterprise level deployments

This is an interesting read:
http://www.oetrends.com/news.php?action=view_record&idnum=352

1. JBoss has a very large development team -- over 91 members...

2.With 78 OSMM points, JBoss qualifies it to be used broadly in commercial enterprise settings

Hey Marc,you got it right man...Congratulations!
Open source rocks in 21st century(Linux,Apache & now a J2EE server)

I wish for a "Mozilla Firefox like open source Desktop OS based on Linux" ,a very simple OS easy enough to handle,configure it...!

forgotten beauty=gSOAP(open source c++ soap impl)

If you care about middleware/webservices, take a look at this beauty-gSOAP:

Don't you think open source is the way to go ? If not better be...world has changed from closed source with limited resources for developers and user level binary testing...

Enjoy gSOAP,

JavaONE-2004 Presentations.

Thanks to Sun, all the JavaOne 2004 slides are online now and I spend my precious early monring hrs to click thru all the presentations to get an overview of what'z going on...

[1]The slides of "very interest" to me are from the "customers" who implemented the technology.
I went thru all the slides in their presentations and it gives a real world experience. Take a look at Orbitz.com,Hotwire.com,etc architectures...

[2]The slides of "interest" to me are from the "product engineers" who actually implement the technology..the guys who code everyday....

[3]Most(not all) of the slides of "NO(LEAST) interest" to me are from the so called "standards experts" which has NO MEAT in their presentations. This is like a reference documentation with full of useless pointers...
