Glassfish was a very nice app server. I say "was" because while it offered tremendous promise under Sun, now that it's owned by Oracle pretty much everyone I know has moved away from it, for the obvious reason that the only thing you can be sure about Larry is that he's shameless when it comes to getting your money out of your pocket and into his _any_ way possible, regardless of ethics, honoring former promises, etc. The reason I bring this up is that, given Roller's limited developer resources, documenting how to run Roller on a dying appserver may not be very high on the list of priorities. Unless it's a itch you want to scratch personally ;) Regards-- Ken -- Ken Gunderson <[email protected]>
