Summer is almost over <img src="http://blogs.sun.com/images/smileys/sad.gif" class="smiley" alt=":-(" title=":-(" /> and the different projects are showing renewed activity,
and that includes <a href="http://glassfish.java.net">GlassFish</a> v3.
Arun has been doing a number of screencasts around Ruby recently and the latest one shows

on V3.

Other GFv3-related activity already announced includes working on the

and
<a href="http://blogs.sun.com/theaquarium/entry/mercurial_and_hudson">Hg Plugin for Hudson</a>.
Stay tuned for more;
things should start picking up in speed after we get GlassFish v2 out.
That is still scheduled for mid-next month.

<p>
The Java EE Clients can be either batch or interactive Swing or JavaFX UIs and use pretty much any Java technology or library you like. The main interest in using the <a href="http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/J2EE/jws-glassfish/part2.html#3">Application Client Container</a> is to have dependency injection work on the client tier for things like security context, remote references to EJB or Web Services, and even transaction context, all hosted by the GlassFish application server.
</p>
<p>There are a few drawbacks such as the size of the files you need to download. For that matter the <a href="http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/J2EE/jws-glassfish/part3.html#6">Java Web Start File Caching</a> may come handy. An overall smaller footprint and better customization of generated JNLP files are part of the <a href="http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/J2EE/jws-glassfish/part4.html#4">future plans</a>.

The
<a href="http://GlassFish.dev.java.net">GlassFish</a>
community is composed of many projects;
some already existed when we started GlassFish,
like
<a href="http://javaserverfaces.dev.java.net">JSF</a>,
<a href="http://jaxb.dev.java.net">JAXB</a>
and
<a href="http://jax-ws.dev.java.net">JAX-WS</a>
(nee JAX-RPC).
Others came later but were separate from the beginning,
like
<a href="http://jersey.dev.java.net">Jersey</a>,
and others spawned from GlassFish
like <a href="http://grizzly.dev.java.net">Grizzly</a>.
</p>
<p>
Separate projects encourate reuse and contributions but are more work
and can create confusion so we wait before creating them.
We have received several requests for a JSP project so
we are going to create one.
Please let me know (or just post here)
if you are interested in this project.
