As far as which angle (command line, web, etc.), I'm interested in any
of those.  Is Twiddle what you are talking about on the command line?

Expanding the Tomcat code sounds like a really interesting idea, but I'm
not familiar with the code behind it.

I am not completely familiar with JMX and JSR -77 and -88, but I am
definitely willing to learn.  To be completely honest, I'm really new at
J2EE stuff, but have lots of time and willingness to learn, so I've been
playing around with different J2EE components, but nothing spectacular
so far.

Thanks for your help,
Matt Kurjanowicz

	There is a bit of code in place already for a command-line
interface, which could be used to implement command-line JMX management
for Geronimo (indeed, there's already a sample command that starts the
server).  If you'd like pursue the command-line angle, I can give you
some
more detail.

	I believe there was talk of extending the Tomcat 5 web UI for
JMX 
management for Geronimo, if you're interested in the web angle.  There
is 
also some OpenEJB code that could be drawn on here.  I know little about

either, but there are others on the list who could certainly tell you 
more.

	If you're thinking of a Swing sort of management console, I
don't 
think anything concrete has even been proposed.

	In any case, are you familiar with JMX, JSR-77, and JSR-88
already?

P.S. No design specs as such, though there are occasional formulated
ideas 
in the mail archive and/or the Wiki.  This is not to say a more
organized 
approach to design would be turned down.
