A big +1! This will be an invaluable help to our community. Almost every 
week there are questions in the mailing list asking things like how to 
run Guvnor on JBOSS AS 5.1, JBOSS AS 6, Tomcat, Weblogic, Websphere, 
Glassfish etc. It will be a great save of both community's time as well 
as drools developers' time if we can gather our best knowledge together 
and have them well documented, including configurations, tricks, 
limitations etc.  To start with, I've just gone through our mailing 
list, most questions are from following areas:

1. JBOSS AS 5.1/ JBOSS AS 6
Docs we already have:
[1]. http://community.jboss.org/docs/DOC-14395?uniqueTitle=false
[2]. http://community.jboss.org/wiki/DroolsGuvnor50inJBossAS5

2. Tomcat 5.x, Tomcat 6
Docs we already have:
[3]. http://community.jboss.org/wiki/JBRMSjsfdependencies

3. WebLogic 11

4.  WebSphere 6.1:
Docs we already have:
[4]. Wiki: http://community.jboss.org/wiki/DeployingGuvnor5OnWebSphere
[5]. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.drools.user/12476/focus=12505
[6]. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.drools.user/12581

5. Glassfish:
Docs we already have: some pretty old discussions, not if they are still 
valid:
[7]. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.drools.user/12610
[8]. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.drools.user/12476/focus=12518

I volunteer to take care of JBOSS AS, Tomcat related. I will verify 
various docs we already have, make sure they are accurate and up to date 
then I put them together into one doc. Mamadou,  can I assume you will 
help to verify WebLogic related docs? I am not familiar with WebSphere 
and Glassfish, any volunteer to take a look into WebSphere and 
Glassfish? They are some docs about WebSphere already [4], but I am not 
sure if its still valid.
