JBoss, like Tomcat, has its own version (typed in from the doc apparently). I believe Sun's binaries are actually redistributable if you meet certain terms (but you should have a lawyer read the license).
The initial commit (later tonight I hope) contains copies of javax.ejb and javax.transaction Dain Sundstrom typed in. Given that these have use for many other projects, it might be a good idea to create a separate subproject, for example in jakarta-commons or commons itself, just to hold free versions of these interface classes rather than duplicating them everywhere. -- Jeremy > -----Original Message----- > From: Henri Yandell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2003 7:35 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Geronimo standard Sun-API jars > > > > The first thing I'm looking for from Geronimo is not a working J2EE > server, but a redistributable version of: > > javamail.jar > jms.jar > jdbc.jar [jdbc 3] > others? jdo? > j2ee.jar with all of the above. > > Is this something Geronimo can do [even if the code is in Sun's naming > package]?
