Hi folks,

first of all forgive me if this is a dumb question but i'm a bit confused about who uses what and what is certified. Or - more probably - i can't see the forrest cause of all the trees ;)

So:

As far as i understand Hibernate 3.2.0 GA together with Hibernate Annotations and EntityManager 3.2.0 GA is certified for EJB 3.0 persistence.
Further: 'Hibernate Java Persistence provider is the default persistence provider of the JBoss EJB 3.0 implementation and bundled with the JBoss Application Server.' (Source: http://www.hibernate.org/397.html).

On the other hand i was told just a minute ago by the JBoss AS 4.0.5 installer that it isn't certified for EJB 3.0 yet, which is also said on http://labs.jboss.org/portal/jbossejb3 ('JBoss EJB3 is not a final implementation and it does not pass the EJB3 Compatibility Test Suite.')

Although my english could be better this seems to be some contradiction to me :)

So my question is: why isn't the JBoss AS 4.0.5 certified for EJB 3.0 although it seems to use Hibernate - which seems to be certified for EJB 3.0?

If it is just because you used an older version of hibernate for the bundling with the AS 4.0.5 i would like to ask you to make it more obvious to see which version comes with it (i.e. by appending the version / milestone of the used jars) because it's a bit confusing for new users - like me :) - and shouldn't be much work.

Further i would like to ask if there is some ETA for a EJB 3.0 certified version of JBoss AS (i.e. do we have to wait for 4.0.6 or does it come earlier)?

So thanks a lot for clarifying this.

PS: I don't want to devalue your work - which i appreciate very much - i'm simply a bit confused by this.
