Apache Geronimo To Miss August 6 Launch Date Target

The Geronimo project, which aims to develop an open source, certified J2EE server that is ASF licensed and passes Sun's TCK reusing the best ASF/BSD licensed code available today and adding new code to complete the J2EE stack, will not make its August 6 launch date. Maybe in September, though, says project chair Geir Magnusson Jr.

#4	Puzzled commented on the 2 Aug 2004 Why do we need another open source J2EE platform? Why not extend/improve JBOSS rather than reinvent the wheel?
#3	from Geronimo Wiki commented on the 27 Jul 2004 [visit link] The Apache Software Foundation has initiated a project to develop an open source, Apache-licensed, implementation of the J2EE specification. In addition, the project is committed to certifying the implementation as J2EE compliant. This is an ambitious goal and will present a formidable challenge for the people involved, given the wide range of technologies covered by the specification. Apache Geronimo builds upon the many Java projects at the Apache Software Foundation. In addition, the project is bringing together members of the Castor, JBoss, MX4J and OpenEJB communities. We would like to extend an open invitation to everyone involved in the J2EE space, both commercial entities and talented individuals, to join the community and build a world-class J2EE implementation. The Apache Software Foundation is in a unique position to build a J2EE compliant platform. Our non-profit, charity status, and our relationship with Sun Microsystems, provides the foundation with access to the J2EE TCKs, making it possible to achieve certification. In addition, our flexible and unrestrictive licensing makes it possible for a wide variety of participants to assist in the development of Apache Geronimo, and to build their own solutions upon the platform. Apache Geronimo has been launched within the Apache Incubator.
#2	Sander Temme commented on the 26 Jul 2004 The beauty of the open-source nature of this project is that anyone can pull the source code out of CVS and watch the progress of the project. It's not like we're waiting for a product release by some company featuring hosted cocktails for the press. A release is more like, this is the tag, here's a tarball that happens to match the tag.
