I saw your discussion on jakarta-general list and am personally pleased that you are back. You had stated that you'd be keen on EJB. I'd like to propose that you consider two alternate scenarios: 1) Refactor to use jakarta-avalon-phoenix as a base, with jakarta-avalon-excalibur, jakarta-avalon-cornerstone and jakarta-commons components to assist development. 2) Merge in with the jakarta-james project. This is as (1) above, but a preexisting project. They already have a server that simulteaeously hosts POP3, SMTP, IMAP, NNTP. iCalendar (as a related RFC server protocol) fits directly with their designs. If I may cross-quote you: "If I chose EJB I am probably going to spend a lot of time explaining it to newcomers, it is a lot more complicated than non-EJB, but it will be based on what is fast becoming the industry standard for server side components." Phoenix exists because you can't make a Mail or Web-server etc from EJB comps. You can make it from those described in (1) above : These have done- JAMES - http://jakarta.apache.org/james/ (Mail) Jo! - http://www.tagtraum.com/ (web server) JabberServer - http://sourceforge.net/projects/jabaserver (Jabber IM) Plus others that are not ready yet.
