2) Have a separate binary image for both the Jetty and Tomcat

revising the assembly process but rather just merely having two
binaries each with a separate set of config files (config.xml,
config.list). This could even be a post-build step done on the
common image. This isn't very technically interesting but clearly
communicates to users that there are two separate environments and
they select the download that they want. Of course, this goes away
if/when the assembly revision is complete.
+1 this is a reasonable compromise.
OK, one more idea for the list...
I'm into testing on making config.xml serve as both the attribute
store and the persistent configuration list. When this works, I think
it would be useful to have a command line parameter that sets the
location/name of the config.xml file to use (maybe a system property).
Then we could choose the configuration on the command line
java -jar bin/server.jar -Dgeronimo.configuration=geronimo-jetty.xml
Scripts could remove the need to know the file name :-)
./geronimo-jetty
Would this be adequate and remove the need for separate distributions?
