From what I can tell, some IDEs make it cute to create, but not maintain EJBs. 
I am writing EJB management tools myself.  For example, I will generate my own
ejb-jar.xml, home/remote interface, etc.
 
A great tool idea, I think, is a "EJB-Jar Verifier".  This tool would take a .jar file
ready for deployment and verify all info is intact.  It seems like many issues
regarding get/set methods, finder methods, primary-key info are impossible to
verify until deployment (RuntimeMBeanException or DeployException). 
I'm currently researching such a tool to "integrate".
 
My "IDE" is [SlickEdit; Karmira debugger].  Works great and this pairing is available for
both Windows and Linux.  Sorry, neither are Open Source, but SlickEdit is top-notch.

Subject: [jBoss-User] OpenSource EJB-Capable IDE


Does anyone know of an EJB-Capable OpenSource IDE?  I've tried several IDE's, and have been mostly coding my EJB's by hand, but I have a couple mid-scale open source projects coming up that I will be working on, and it would be nice to have an IDE that could understand EJB stuff (keep the interface/classes in sync, check for required methods, maybe even write the ejb-jar.xml file....).

What are others using?
