I know nothing about EJBs so that could definetly be the case. All it has
to do is pass the compatability suite I think so as long as it does that
you are right as rain. However the compatability suit also tests for
failures as well. SO if your product does not fail in same ways as sun
fails then you could be in trouble ;) But as I said I know nothing of EJB
or difference between versions ;)
Cheers,
Pete
