Thanks Peter, that is helpful information.

I found the page with the list of functionalities that you were referring to:  
http://java.sun.com/javaee/technologies/javaee5.jsp 
http://java.sun.com/javaee/technologies/javaee5.jsp

Two follow up questions (sorry if they sound stupid):

1) If a certain functionality is listed in Java EE 5, does this mean the 
functionality must be implemented in the Application Server (and not the JVM)?

2) Taking an example of a specification that exists in Java SE but not in Java 
EE - let's use JNDI as an example. JNDI has a API for client side and the 
service layer (SPI) for a provider. Since EE is a superset of SE, does that 
mean ALL certified EE Application Servers must meet the JNDI SPI provider 
specifications? Is it safe to assume that since Sun's EE functionality from the 
above webpage doesn't list anything about JNDI specifications but is it listed 
in SE? I hope my logic is not wrong, I am still somewhat new to the server side 
implementations of Java EE.

Thanks very much!
