To Brian Wallis, even if Jboss were to get certified, it would not make your J2EE compliant applications portable. Why? There are may important things considered outside the specification. For example, all database mappings for CMP are outside the spec, even using a database for CMP is outside the spec. Then you get into things like exception recovery and tuning, and you are way outside the spec. Unless you have a very simple application it will not be portable without multiple configuration files and possibly a portably a portability layer.
Having the TDK would be nice to help identify new bugs, and eliminate the of the minor differences between the platforms, but I doubt it will seriously help you with making a cross platform application.

I have never heard any of the main developers talk about JBoss4 _not_ being J2EE compatible. It has always been my understanding that the AOP framework would form the underpinnings of JBoss4's EJB implementation and be available as a more-flexible, lighter weight API for people who aren't concerned with portability.
Scott, Bill, Marc - can one of you clarify?
thanks, danch

to deal with all the J2EE APIs"
from this and the discussion in general.. Jboss4 and J2EE compliance are
two entirely
different "roadmaps" (IMHU).. i mean its important for everyone here to
know what direction Jboss
is going to take.. is j2EE compliance important and is Jboss going for
it..or
is it keeping up the Jboss4 AOP vision and hence chucking compliance?
