GlassFish v3 Prelude now available with Metro 1.4

GlassFish v3 Prelude

was released today. This release of GlassFish is using our new
OSGi-based microkernel. You can read about its features in an
InfoWorld

article

and in Jean-Francois'

blog entry.

Metro

1.4 is part of this release. Metro 1.4 interoperates with Microsoft's
Windows Communication Framework SOAP stack in .NET 3.5 based on Oasis
and W3C standards (and with .NET 3.0 based on submission
specifications).

REST support in GlassFish is provided by our

Jersey

implementation of the

JAX-RS (JSR 311)

specification. Paul's

blog entry

points out some useful starting points.
