I spent 5 years with their product from 2000-2005 (Netscape App Server, iPlanet, and then SunOne) and didn't think it was that bad. Anyhow, it never made sense to me why Sun wouldn't try to push the J2EE servers any harder then they did. Now they ARE an afterthought. Nothing more then the RI for the J2EE spec.

I recall in the past there were claims that some adoption studies included applications where Oracle Application Server was embedded (like Oracle Apps) - and hence I think that's why there is the concious munging of versions there. If it were ever possible, it sure would be neat to see what the actual deployed stats are like (i.e., accounting for ISV and VARS that resell apps with embedded app servers!) - Don Those are certainly interesting stats, I really like the IDE Stats ;)
