In no particular order, here are the "little" projects being discussed on
the mailing lists lately:
Adding BMP support to jBoss
Adding stateful session support to jBoss (Is this right? No stateful
sessions yet?)
Writing a bean developer's guide
Writing a jBoss contributor's guide
jBoss/EJB 1.1 compliance map
jBoss compatibility with other EJB Containers
A paper on the JMX stuff (whatever that means)
Improved transaction management for jBoss
A project on highly scalable web applications using jBoss and OODBs
High Availability
More sophisticated OR mapping
Improved deployment / code generator tools
A graphical JMX client that would serve as a "server monitor" showing the
properties of all loaded services (but someone may already be working on this)
A wizard that would let a user pick attributes and would then generate all
the needed classes in source code and the ejb-jar.xml file. (Rickard
mentioned his XML-based CodeGenerator project at <http://dreambean.com/>.)
What's the most critical?
