Hello,
I have received a request[1] for removing the generic server adapters for
JBoss servers. The generic server definitions for JBoss are not really
updated anymore and have several issues. Also, we do not cover the latest
of the JBoss servers. JBoss already provides better quality and up to date
server adapters for all JBoss versions including the ones we cover. These
adapters are also open source under EPL.

Generic servers, in the early days of WTP, were a great tool for providing
easy and good enough server integration but now that most servers have full
adapters, I think we need to think about deprecating at least servers that
have an adapter with a compatible license that covers the same versions of
servers.

Unless you see a big problem with this, I would like to retire JBoss
Generic servers in the next release.
