Re: [VOTE] Sponsor OpenEJB to become sub-project of Geronimo

Hi All...

+1, but I have a question. Isn't it better to have OEJB as a separate
project, as we have the intention to make it independent from Geronimo, as
to have it work inside or outside Geronimo?

IIUC, it is up to the Incubator PMC where it ultimately ends up.

It is and it will end up as such. It's an independent project, and
once it became a ASF project it will conceptually get Geronimo PMC
support and thus become an subproject of Apache Geronimo. That's the
only linkage between them. Technical stuff is and will be discussed
within a OpenEJB community and it's up to it to decide what steps are
to be taken - be more focus on Geronimo or EJB 3 spec itself with no
strings attached (to Geronimo).

(Strange, I wonder whether I've already voted for it).

Everyone, please note that Mohammed is responding to an email from

Here is that thread for reference:  http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?

If there are questions on the status of OpenEJB's move to the

Hi All

Jeremy I agree with, and this current close relation to Geronimo delayed the
development on OpenEJB, specially when the build of Geronimo is not going
well as OpenEJB now required APIs from Geronimo which I don't know why they
don't separate it as a common JEE code which can be used into either
Geronimo or OpenEJB or any other JEE related stuff.

Thanks and best regards...

Geronimo and OpenEJB relationship (was Re: [VOTE] Sponsor OpenEJB to become sub-project of Geronimo)

Posted by John Sisson <jr...@gmail.com>.
Hi Jeremy,

Sorry for the confusion, I probably should have started a new thread for 
this mail as the mail I replied to was a mail I missed from months back 
from a vote thread.  The vote is actually over ( see dblevins mail at 
http://www.mail-archive.com/dev%40geronimo.apache.org/msg26078.html ).

It is my understanding that OpenEJB will be moving back to one 
development stream (OpenEJB version 3) that will be used by Geronimo and 
OpenEJB standalone, so the future should be much brighter as development 
will all be focused in the one stream.  Is this correct?

Thanks for taking the time to explain what the concerns were, as I 
wasn't sure if they were technical or project management concerns.  I 
look forward to seeing OpenEJB in the incubator.

Re: [VOTE] Sponsor OpenEJB to become sub-project of Geronimo

Posted by Jeremy Whitlock <jc...@gmail.com>.
Hi all,
    I am an OpenEJB developer and although I'm not as well known as many of
the others, I have been with the team for about 3 years.  I am a big fan of
Geronimo but ever since OpenEJB became the EJB container for Geronimo,
things have been a little less clear for OpenEJB users.  For example, a lot
of people only know OpenEJB via Geronimo.  Most don't know that OpenEJB is a
standalone EJB container with more than 7 years under its belt.  While this
is a tragedy this is not the point I am wishing to make so lets continue.

    OpenEJB began life a long time ago.  When Geronimo came along, things
took a turn for the worst for OpenEJB.  Not only did the mainstream
development of the non-Geronimo version of OpenEJB suffer and nearly stop
but the users of OpenEJB also began to backlash about this feeling of
neglect.  Geronimo took the best developers from OpenEJB to build a better
version of OpenEJB but it only builds and runs inside of Geronimo.  This
again is a tragedy.  I could go on but I need to make a point.

    My point is that OpenEJB is a mature EJB container with many devoted
developers.  It is not tied to Geronimo.  The fact that the version within
Geronimo is pretty Geronimo-specific is a planning problem and should not be
taken out on the OpenEJB developers.  Many of the developers, like myself,
would love to see the Apache Software Foundation open its doors to a mature
and well-known EJB container to call its own.  The concerns about OpenEJB
ties to Geronimo should not keep a great product from being sponsored at the
ASF.

Take care,

Jeremy

P.S. - I'm a +1 on this if my vote isn't seen as biased.  ;)

Nothing with the actual association itself.  Die hard OpenEJB fans want 
to use OpenEJB w/out the usual Geronimo accoutrements.  As I mentioned 
below, Dain is working on this.

Alan,

What type of concerns do they have regarding its close association with 
Geronimo?

It should be more than possible to have a decoupled OpenEJB codebase  
that plugs into Geronimo while at the same time have these projects  
exists in the same community.

I also am leaning towards the idea that it's good for OpenEJB to be 
separate from Geronimo.  Whenever I talk w/ users of OpenEJB, they are 
always concerned about its close association w/ Geronimo.  However, it 
is my understanding that Dain is working hard on decoupling OpenEJB's 
strong reliance on Geronimo code.

Sorry... my +1 is for the proposal.

I've snipped out any confusing bits below...

Jason, IIUC, Mohammed is asking if it is not better to have OpenEJB 
separate from Geronimo, not together.  Your plus one seems to be at odds 
w/ your subsequent statements.  Am I misunderstanding something?

+1

Most of the OpenEJB developers are Geronimo developers, so it really  
makes sense to bring these two codebases together.

I don't see any problem with OpenEJB coming together with Geronimo  
regarding to allow others to use the OpenEJB core w/o the rest of  
Geronimo.  I believe that one of the key drives within Geronimo is to  
make it highly flexible and pluggable.  Many components are already  
in use by other projects (and OpenEJB) itself) with out requiring the  
entire server.

There merger of these two groups will almost certainly result in a  
more functional OpenEJB, which means a more functional Geronimo.
