    Apache Geronimo is Java EE 5 Compatible

    The Apache Geronimo project announced they have passed all the Java EE 5 tests ensuring compatibility. They join the list of other companies that also have compatible implementations including TMaxSoft, SAP, BEA, Oracle and Sun.  This is a gigantic proof point for the power of open source to enable innovation.  In the first year after releasing Java EE 5 to open source (GlassFish went public in May 2005) there were 5 compatible implementations,  Geronimo now makes it 6 with more to come.  In previous years it took 2 to 3 years for the 1st additional implementation to appear.  Congratulations to the Apache project.

    People who have implemented Java EE 5 compatibility havent shown great performance in their products. Tmaxsoft is an example. They have consistently produced sub-standard, duplicated products in the market with marketing gimmicks.
