First MMBase was created then came j2ee along. I am currently only learning j2ee. I would be very interessted in a MMBase vs j2ee comparaison node managers/node vs container managed entiry beans relation/tcp etc... You just might end up saying MMBase is some kind of "entreprise server" missing some features? So I think moving to j2ee would mean changing parts of MMBase to use standarized api's. And that's not bad but it's difficult ! bye
