Hello Matt,
Thanks for your answer. As to your question, it was bug 3095. The
bug
may be in the Geronimo plugin code or it may be in the WAS CE
derivation
from such code. Regardless of where it is, it hampers the ability to
use Geronimo in Eclipse when another server derived from Geronimo (WAS
CE in this case) is installed first.
The response seems to say that this is a "known limitation" of WAS CE,
not Geronimo, and sounded as coming from a WAS CE team member. It
also
indicates that "we will not be fixing it in the 1.1 or 2.0
releases" (of
WAS CE I presume) and was closed as "invalid".
I see what you mean. I think given your comments Donald probably
could have stated it better but I'll let him address that himself.
What I think he was indicating was that the bug should not have been
opened against Geronimo as it was an issue in IBM's distribution of
CE. His indicating what CE was planning to do in our JIRA system was
probably not the right place to address that. Although, I'm sure the
person that opened it appreciated the answer, it caused confusion for
other folks.
It's a good reminder that we need to be screening our JIRA's a bit
more closely, thanks for the heads up.
No chance seemed to be given to the Geronimo team to consider the side
effects or to take preventive measures (i.e.: Adding a clause to the
Geronimo license requiring that any derived work must not interfere
with
the original).
Perhaps Sachin can comment more on the defect as he did the Eclipse
tooling in Geronimo.

Hi Bruno,
<-- snip -->
I was concerned about your comment about "how a bug report was
handled"
comment you mentioned above. How was it handled that gave you a bad
feeling?
