The first and foremost question everybody will ask is: does it contain EJB 3.1 features?
The short answer is: no (keep on reading ;-) ).

community driven AS 6 series. It includes support for certain key technologies that are
part of the EE6 specification. Additional capabilities will be added in future
milestones.
|
| The new EE standards supported in this release are:
| * JSF 2 - Includes major improvements over JSF1 such as AJAX support and integration
with Bean Validation.
| * Bean Validation (JSR-303) - Provides centralized validation of model objects
accross all tiers (presentation, data, etc).
| * CDI [Weld RI] (JSR-299) - Offers an innovative and feature rich context management
and dependency injection framework for EE applications.
|
| Other major additions include:
| * Mod_cluster - An intelligent load balancing solution that integrates with Apache
Web Server, and uses appserver heuristics to efficiently balance requests across a JBoss
AS cluster.
| * Embedded Prototype - A prototype for a new API that launches, configures and
deploys against an in-VM JBoss AS instance.
| * Many bug fixes and small enhancements listed in the full notes below.

The AS 6 milestones will get additional capabilities as they are released. For EJB 3
we'll start at the baseline EJB 3.0 and release a new capability frequently until we
get the full EJB 3.1 in the final AS 6 release. In fact we will not wait for milestones to
appear, but we'll use a package manager to install components into the latest
milestone (in similar fashion as the plugin).
As for the new technologies that are in 6.0.0.M1, like Bean Validation, I highly recommend
you add ConstraintViolationException to your application exception list.
