I beg to differ... I'm not flaming here, but where do you get this
information? A lot of people are using JBoss. I have personal experience
with 3 of them. One is a large globally known financial institution. Go
read the testimonials page.

Don't take flames and such on this jboss-dev list too seriously. Remember,
we're developers. We're not politically correct. The jboss-dev email list
is used mostly by jboss contributors who sometimes have big egos and/or are
sometimes obnoxious. jboss-dev is our office, and we have an open office
here. Arguments can sometimes get out of hand. This is true even in brick
and mortar offices. We all feel strongly about what we're doing here and
sometimes this turns into rude, obnoxious flames.
Please stick around James, and please don't let these emails spoil the good
and the awesome of JBoss.
Bill
