The bottom line is vendors can make Sun's J2EE RI clusterable, approach Sun for
an OEM license, and enter the market.

It has nothing to do with me.
Your still trying to make it personal and your just embarassing yourself.
Once again I'm not interested in writing EJB containers because it's not my
business and it has nothing to do with the point in question.

It does not have anything to do with me licensing Sun's RI and trying any of the
above.
The fact of the matter is that it can be done! Your personal attacks on me are a
waste of time.

Wrong!!!
Disassemblers don't work on large scale systems very well.

The bottom-line is that there are some great programmers out there who can make
Sun's J2EE RI scale and they are not limited by narrow-minds.
