Great comments. We are trying to change this perception and will
shortly begin showing we have far from stalled.
Lets get some more discussion about splitting up the components and get
some more feedback in this area...
I agree to have a full J2EE stack release *and* a stripped down
core-only version is a great idea. Lets get some more input on this
subject..

Hi Philippe,
We are currently working towards an official release, so thanks for
inquiring. However, in the mean time, you are welcome to download
the source and build a latest version for youself. The source tree
will contain the closest-to-M4 version and you should be able to get
started using Geronimo with the latest and greatest code.
Would it make sense to split the release into two and have a 'Geronimo
Core (or Kernel)' and 'Geronimo J2EE' part? I would really like to
start doing some more serious work with Geronimo but I have absolutely
no interest in a complete J2EE environment. I'm sure there are many
people in the same situation.
It could also make sense from a PR kind of view; right now it looks
like the project is stalled ... it has been a long time since an
official release was made. With a 'Geronimo Core' package that has a
v1.0.x version number that could change. Perception is reality :-)
