Looks good! Two nits. "On of the main goals of Geronimo" -> "One of the main goals of Geronimo" "easy-to-configure app server" -> "easy-to-configure application server"

All, I have included a preliminary shot at the Press Release for Geronimo 1.1. This is a draft and needs your input. The areas where I think we might need some wordsmithing is the 1.5 support. * DRAFT * DRAFT * DRAFT * DRAFT * DRAFT * DRAFT * DRAFT * DRAFT * Apache Software Foundation Announces Release of Apache Geronimo Version 1.1 Usability and Configuration Improvements Mean Users Need Less Knowledge To Configure and Deploy J2EE Applications (City, State) June xx, 2006 -- The Apache Software Foundation is pleased to announce the release of Apache Geronimo Version 1.1, a completely open source, high performance application server from the Apache community. The release continues the J2EE certification path led by the previous version of Geronimo, providing a fully compliant and usable J2EE container suitable for everything from development to Enterprise deployments. Apache Geronimo v1.1 introduces several structural changes improving scalability, portability and overall organization, as well as including new features and functionality. Enhancements have been made to the administration console including memory utilization graphics and plugins to improve usability. JDK 1.5 support is included, and improvements have been made to the innovative configuration and administration/plug-in architecture. Whereas the previous version offered a full J2EE configuration, v1.1 includes a "Little G" configuration, a smaller footprint web-oriented version of Geronimo that can be scaled up to JMS or full J2EE using plug-ins as users' needs change. The addition of Little G provides an option for those who want to use Geronimo for lightweight applications without the additional installation overhead. On of the main goals of Geronimo is flexibility. Geronimo should be flexible enough to include what users want and need. Apache Geronimo already offers a modular architecture that makes it easy to create custom distributions with custom feature sets. With v1.1, we (the Apache Geronimo Team) looked at users' needs and added even more features to benefit those needs, increase functionality, and extend usability. The flexible, easy to use, and easy-to-configure app server is built from best-of-breed open source components and is fully licensed under the business-friendly Apache Software License offering multiple benefits to organizations and their development teams. The software is available for download from the Apache Geronimo web site (http://geronimo.apache.org/).
