That was done this way because we were getting ready for the IP Clearance and what was needed for the first release. As part of the IP clearance process we were supposed to get rid of Cat-X dependencies (the JMS API JAR was LGPL for instance... so we needed to find a replacement which was completed by John Ament here. >> We incorporated OpenWire, changed how connection factories are >> serialized and persisted to be exactly the same as what's done on >> ActiveMQ5, the server start was recently changed to be exactly as >> what's done on Apollo, Documentation was changed around a lot to be >> consistent with Apache brands... etc.. etc.. etc… > > All hard work and looks awesome.

As I said.. that was just the first release... there's a lot more to be done.. and we have been pretty open about inviting people to join the effort. The open wire implementation for instance is the very first implementation.. and it needs to be taken further. the docs work was a direct conversion of what we had... that was also part of the IP clearance.
