Thanks Lasantha :-) I will create one such page in our wiki.
Between thanks also to the "EJB sample application" that you and Hernan (if I am correct) have created. I happily used it as the J2EE Application to be developed in my Presentation. - Shiva On 5/12/07, Lasantha Ranaweera <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi Shiva, I just went through your presentation and looks good for me :-) . It is better if we can add this kind of sample application to the Geronimo documentation (how to create a small sample application with Eclipse Geronimo Plugin) with some screen prints. It should be targeted the new comers of J2EE/JEE5 to use Geronimo as their application server. That will make Geronimo much more popular among J2EE/JEE5 developer community too.
