Apache Geronimo Reaches J2EE 1.4 Certification Milestone

The Apache Software Foundation is pleased to announce the release of Apache Geronimo 1.0-M5, the first fully certified release of the Apache Geronimo project's J2EE 1.4 application server. Apache Geronimo v1.0-M5 contains a number of enhancements, including the integration of Apache Tomcat, a developer preview of the upcoming management console, and a multitude of configuration and usability improvements.
