Sun offers JBoss J2EE Compliance Test

From CNet News.com, Sun reaches out to JBoss.

Sun last week offered JBoss Group the opportunity to license a set of testing tools to see if JBoss software adheres to the Sun-sanctioned Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) specification, said Simon Phipps, Sun's chief technology evangelist. If the JBoss Group's Java server software passes the compliance test, it can gain certification of J2EE compliance.

Phipps [Sun's chief technology evangelist] said he doubts that JBoss software will pass the compliance test. Basing his opinion on public information, he said, JBoss software does not appear to implement all of the J2EE specification. Phipps also noted that JBoss appears to be using software written by Sun.

"I predict that now that we're calling their bluff, they will make up another excuse for not doing the tests," Phipps said.

Go JBoss, I hope you kick butt on the test and pass with flying colors. I've been working with Open Source appservers (not to mention other products) for a couple of years now, and IMO these products seem to be much higher quality than commercial products. Granted, most of the documentation sucks, but that's where experience comes in and makes you a valuable developer. I believe that many developers root for the commercial products because of the time that they've invested in learning them. That's how I used to be with iPlanet. Too bad that time was mainly invested in gaining knowledge of how to write workarounds for appserver bugs. I'm all for open source and I'll recommend it to any clients I have.

Invest in good developers, not your application server. Knowledge is power.

Consider making it an eBook and self publishing (if you can get out of the contract). It is most $ and most distirbution. .V
