This is really a very good app. But my suggestion is, we should define a set of admin API first, thereafter, 3rd party developers can have their own admin apps. I agree to the Tomcat admin console, coz it is better to have a universal admin console for all Apache app servers.

Anyway, admin , IMHO, is not a high priority module in Geronimo:-) We can't design this module if we don't have other modules' detail:-(

There's already a pretty good JMX based web administration console inside Tomcat...

Its currently using JSP & Struts and looks pretty easy to extend. Maybe that should serve as a base to manage all of Geronimo as well as Tomcat/Jetty? It also looks like it shouldn't be too hard to add some nice custom pages to make management easier - just generating stuff from straight JMX can often lead to a clumsy management console - this would allow us to make it pretty neat.

It seems silly to reinvent the wheel when this existing web application already does most things we need. (I've added this item to the todo list).
