can't wait to read more FUD articles proclaiming they're the savor of the world. I think I'll keep plugging along until the rubber hits the tires and some real traction is observed. peter

If they say it is, they are either misleading you or they are honestly wrong. I know enough about Marketecture to safely say this. I've also read their source code, and I know how it works. Again, watch for the articles ; ) As far as "competitive advantages" go, once people get a taste of Geronimo's configuration and distribution features, once they understand what IoC-3 Components and GBeans buy them, they're never going to want to develop for anything else. Order-of-magnitude performance gains not included, I think the JBoss server is in serious trouble and I would hate to be holding ten million dollars of debt on my shoulders riding in *that* boat. The configuration advantages alone will challenge the way we think about application development. Yeah, they set the bar really high around here. I got a couple of nosebleeds trying to get over it. I'm sure the JBoss guys'll start seeing similar problems when they sit down to implement JSR-77. I feel inflamatory articles, FUD, and nonsense is a very unproductive way to interact (given your latest fine article on the ASF, I see you have a habit of taking people hostage using that method), and, given that, my answer to any of your proposals is very simple: no (aka, -1). As for the apparently marvellous G experience, we'll see and let the market decide. Quite frankly, you sound like an Avalon fan turned bad.
