GlassFish bits are distributed in several different ways from Sun today: GlassFish, GlassFish Enterprise (formerly SJS AppServer), Java EE SDK, ... Coopetition has Oracle, JBoss, IBM and others also ship pieces of GlassFish as part of their offerings. The GAP rewarded alternate community distributions of GlassFish.
• IZpack from France's Julien Ponge. This installer for GlassFish v2 is quite popular with a fair number of downloads. Julien is working on a GlassFish v3 version.
• Linux Packages (RPMs and Gentoo) from Australia's Chris Ryan. This extends the reach of GlassFish to other new communities. Hopefully Chris will find the time to work on the Gentoo source version for v3. The RPM's Chris created are reportedly being used within his company Wotif.com.
These are great additions to the existing community work done to package GlassFish for and inside Ubuntu and Debian.
