Simon Phipps, Sun's chief technology evangelist stated in the article he thinks JBoss Group is bluffing, that their code won't pass the tests, and that some of the code is just copied from Sun."

    You obviously don't know sh^H^H much about J2EE.
    A J2EE application is a mix of 3 things:
    1. Java source code
    2. J2EE XML descriptors
    3. Proprietary XML descriptors
    (1) and (2) can be reused. But (3) must be rewritten for each target application server. And depending on the application that is being migrated, this could be done in a matter of hours or days.
