Question:
JBoss Compatibility
 In a recent survey, a lot of developers want to know when Sun will allow JBoss to be 
branded as compatible with Java technology. 

Answer:
 Yeah, that's a really tough situation. JBoss is an open source project that wants to 
say they are compatible with J2EE, but they are also a for-profit project, so they 
can't apply for zero-cost access to the TCKs under the new rules. Recently JBoss 
launched its own certification program, which is interesting. Open source wisdom says 
that it's really hard to maintain a fork. It will be interesting to see how they do. 
I'd really like to see Sun and JBoss work together to find a solution to the problem. 
They got great coverage at the 2002 JavaOneSM conference -- several awards. It's a 
very popular effort.
