Darran,

Okay if I agree with what you said, and I think I do, can someone help out with the verbiage here then:
http://documentation-stage.bne.redhat.com/docs/en-US/JBoss_Enterprise_Application_Platform/6/html/Alpha_Documentation/TopicID3371.html

both Domain and Standalone read exactly the same with the definition, and if they are really different I would expect these words to be vastly different, if not then my prior argument still stands and they should be grouped.  ;)  Ducks and runs

Did you see RHT on Cramer?
