I don't think many people used gshell or gshell commands to start
geronimo. I think most of geronimo users use "geronimo" and "deploy"
scripts.

Well, I think we should discuss this direction in the community first
before doing anything about it. Also, I don't know why we would need
to attract karaf users in the first place. I certainly don't want to
start geronimo server by executing "karaf" script or seeing "welcome
to karaf" type of messages after starting the server.
Karaf was a good starting point for Geronimo for the conversion to
OSGi but I don't think we have to completely rebase Geronimo on top of
karaf. So far we have been taking bits and pieces of karaf and
integrating it with Geronimo. I think that approach makes sense now.
