An open letter from Greg Stein as posted in The Inquirer:
The project (tentatively named “Apache Geronimo”) builds upon the many Java projects at the Apache Software Foundation. In addition, the project is bringing together leading members of the Castor, JBoss, MX4J and OpenEJB communities. We would like to extend an open invitation to everyone involved in the J2EE space, both commercial entities and talented individuals, to join the community and build a world-class J2EE implementation.
This struck my by suprise, but I haven’t been paying too close attention to J2EE rumblings as of late. It’s an excellent project to undertake, and I wish the Geronimo developers good luck.
