Release date for Productin Version of JBOSS 4.0

[kdilbeck]

Is there an official target release date for the production ready version of JBOSS 4.0 with J2EE 1.4 support?

Thanks,

Is JBoss making an effort to be a licensed J2EE 2.4 solution? I guess the reason i ask, is it makes people feel more comfortable that their apps are portable, etc. Of course AOP aspects of things don't have to be portable yet, but at least it's good to know that non-AOP code is.

Thanks,

Hi,
how can JBOSS 4.0 be certified J2EE1.4 by the end of the year,
if the spec is not going to be ready but that time ?

Thanks.
Giuseppe.

JBoss 4.0 will be released by the end of the year, no one said anything about the certification time table.

Hi sorry,
but the very first question was :

Is there an official target release date for the production ready version of JBOSS 4.0 with J2EE 1.4 support?

And I though that support meant certification.

Sorry about the misunderstanding.

I'll reformulate the question:

When do you think JBOSS will be certified J2EE 1.4 ?

Thanks.
Giuseppe.

That is up to Sun Microsystems. JBoss Group has offered to pay for the certification. It seems however that Sun is not in a hurry to move this forward.

Is JBoss 4.0 still on schedule for end of the year 2003 release? It looks like Developer release 3.0 is not yet posted. Are we skipping DDR 3.0?

Thanks

We've updated the roadmap (it's going to appear on the website soon) so right now it looks like the 1Q of 2004.

Hi Juha,

At this moment, is the expected release date for the production version of JBoss 4.0 the first quartal of 2004? Or is being delayed again?

Best regards,
Javi

It has been delayed, please refer to the RoadMap for the most up to date information.

Moi Juha ;-)

It has been delayed, please refer to the <a href="http://jboss.org/developers/roadmap/JBoss_4-0_RoadMap.pdf">RoadMap</a> for the most up to date information.

The only calendar related info that I could pick up from the roadmap is pointing to Q2/04, correct?
(the short term tasks do not have any release date!)

I was wondering the JBoss 4.0 JCA situation, that is the FINAL version coming before summer or after it?

The roadmap doesn't specify that what is the total amount of the JCA task and so it's specification that there is 20% done in the JCA points me that it's risky to plan using the JBoss 4.0 for JCA 1.5 testing even in Q2.

JCA 1.5 is a requirement for J2EE 1.4, so it will be in 4.0

JCA 1.5 is a requirement for J2EE 1.4, so it will be in 4.0

Yes, but if the current implementation is covering only 20% of the total in JCA 1.5 task, is the possibility very low to have some beta version of JBoss (with working JCA 1.5) before summer ?

(I was planning to use JBoss in my JCA 1.5 test in 2 moths time, but now it seems not so wise plan!)
