A couple years ago I attempted to use OpenJMS to create a MDB container system for OpenEJB. I couldn't do it because OpenJMS at that time did not support JTA resource API - this predates J2EE Connectors 1.5. Does OpenJMS support this now? Specifically can it act as a 2pc resource? If so, than perhaps the best approach to building a MDB container is to create a J2EE Connector for OpenJMS. That would allow it to be totally plugable rather than tightly coupled - I figure that's the way we would go anyway, but I wanted to raise the issue of OpenJMS not supporting (in the past) 2pc.
