Alright, I had a feeling that this would not be a good scenario :) .   
None the less the scenario with the spilt partition I described in my
former mail is real.  We experienced this sometimes in our production
environments.  If this happens with the singleton MBean in place for JMS
failover one would be in trouble.

Is this hard to implement?
I don't want to offend anyone here but is it really worth it?  Would it
not be better to provide a truly transparent clustered JMS
implementation?  As far as I know you guys are already working on
something for jboss4.  How far along are you and are there any plans to
back port to 3.2?

Regards,
Sebastian
