Geronimo has a provider implementation, which we use, jetty has built in =
support, geronimo's tomcat fork has support which we've offered back to =
tomcat, glassfish has support, IIUC JBoss has had support for many years =
(well before the spec was approved).  I'm a little unclear on the exact =
status in ee6 but think that support for the servlet profile is required =
so I'd expect the commercial vendors to support it as well in their ee6 =
releases.

There does seem to be remarkable reluctance on the part of users to =
consider trying it.  Do you have any idea why?

thanks
