I do not have a preferred implementation, no. I understand the basics of JMS and how it works, but I have never actually used it before. I do usually work with Spring Framework, but my understanding is that it's relatively agnostic as to the underlying implementation of JMS.
ActiveMQ looks interesting. One concern I have is that some of the documentation seems rather dated: referring to JavaEE 1.4, for example, when 1.6 came out two years ago and 1.7 is on the brink of approval. And then there's the context resource definition on the Tomcat page and references to the shared lib directory, and immediately below that an 'updated' resource definition for "Tomcat 5.5 or later" that's "completely untested but should work." Seeing as how 6.0 and 7.0 are both mature and 8.0 is around the corner somewhere, this seems awfully dated. How well-maintained and up-to-date is ActiveMQ? Can we expect work on the impending JMS 2.0 specification to begin any time in the future?

The first one that comes to mind is ActiveMQ... https://activemq.apache.org/tomcat.html but I'm sure there are other options. Do you have a preferred JMS implementation?
