In the long term (by Glassfish 4.0), I think WebLogic and Glassfish will merge into a single platform. Oracle will take advantage of Glassfish excellent support for modularity to offer WebLogic's "enterprisey" features up as for-pay extensions to the "WebLogic/ Glassfish" open source base. Similar to the model IceFaces is adopting. This is a workable business model in my opinion, a good compromise between OSS, and paychecks.
