Geronimo 1.1 to 2.1/ J2EE to JEE(5)
As I a haven't seen this specifically identified, I thought I'd outline
my thoughts and have them confirmed. Everyones comments are appreciated
I'm presuming no required changes to the codebase. The only requirement
to port a J2EE Geronimo 1.1 Enterprise Application to run as a JEE
Geronimo 2.0/2.1 Enterprise Application are changes to the Application
Server specific deployment descriptors. I don't for see problems with
the EAR or WAR's, but have my concerns about the EJB's. My
understanding is that EJB 2.1 is required to function as a part of the
JEE spec. Read: You don't have to port from EJB 2.1 to EJB 3.0,
although there are significant advantages to the new JPA technology.

Mark,
I've been working on putting together some migration documentation for 2.1.
This seems like great information for these documents. Would you mind if I
included it?

Does it mean that without these changes one would not be able to
migrate an ear from Geronimo 1.1 to Geronimo 2.1? What will happen
when you don't apply the changes to the dds?
