The wiki is the primary documentation location.

Here is the current changelog for M2 (not yet released).

Comparing Geronimo to other app servers is fine as long as you
understand your findings will be largely irrelavent in sort order.
I'd encourage you to compare our M1 changelog against the current M2
changelog to get an idea of how fast things change.

Here is the changelog of the M1 release.

Will Geronimo be production quality?  Definitely, yes.

Is Geronimo M1 or M2 production quality?  Definitely, no.

Who should try out M2?  Developers with patients and time to camp out
on the dev list and flush out issues.

Who shouldn't try out M2?  Developers who aren't willing to report
problems and work with us in its resolution.
