Hello again! First off, sorry for posting a Fuse question to a SMX forum. This was an honest mistake and won't be repeated. Thanks to Christian and Claus for pointing this out to me!
For anyone who is interested in the answer I received a direct response from Charles Moulliard who stated the following: <snip> There is absolutely no advantages at all to embed Fuse ESB / Apache ServiceMix 4.x into an Application Server (JBoss, GlassFish, Websphere, ...). By doing that, you will complicate your life and the cost of the projects as you will deploy an OSGI server into the classloader of the AppServer which is in some cases an OSGI server too (GlassFish, JBoss, ...). Fuse ESB is more than a routing/mediation/integration platform as we provide also as containers : a Web Server, EJB container, Spring and Java Container, .... </snip> <snip> As we have complety re-write the kernel of Fuse ESB between v3 and v4 (OSGI based - Apache Felix or Eclipse Equinos), the existing platform should be perceived as now a Java Application Server (which is not J2EE certified of course). With Fuse ESB v3, it was possible to package the server as a WAR which is not longer the case now. Fuse ESB - v3 = Java Server = JBI Bus Fuse ESB - v4 = Java Application Server - OSGI based = containers where we can deploy JBI, NMR or Camel buses, JMS Broker, Spring or Java, EJB, WebServices CXF, CDI </snip> Have a good weekend!

This list is about servicemix.
