Hi Jon, I'm glad that you found the j2g migration tool helpful. In regards to your question, one of the contributors are currently eyeballs deep working on a Administration Console Wizard for generating deployment plans. The current status of this work can be found in the jira geronimo-3254[1]. I read through it briefly but didn't see any explicit mention of the openejb-jar.xml. Perhaps you and Shiva could coordinate to incorporate your work in the Wizard?
[1] http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-3254 Hopefully this is the kind of response you were looking for.
