Geronimo 3.0 Aims To Be Java EE 6 Compliant
After its Geronimo v2.2 server passed SUN’s JEE5
Certification Test Suite, Apache’s roadmap for Geronimo 3.0 reveals the open
source organisation is aiming for 3.0 to be fully compliant with
Java
EE 6 standards.
Apache have released a table tracking the progress of the 3.0 build, which
will indicate when the code for a particular function becomes
available and will allow users to submit early feedback on 3.0.
Apache stress they will not declare overall Java EE 6 compliance,
until Geronimo 3.0 is complete.
Geronimo 2.2 already complies with much of the Java EE 6 spec, but
3.0 will drop Java SE 5 support in favour of Java SE 6 support, and
aims for a reduced sever footprint and startup time. JAX-B 2.1,
JAX-WS 2.1, JAX-RS 0.8 and JPA 2.0 are already fully supported in
Geronimo 2.2.
