JBoss Application Server (http://www.jboss.org/jbossas) is one of the most powerful Java EE application servers in the world. The newest release introduces completely new lightweight and modular architecture which is a great news for all system administrators and developers! Unfortunately JBoss AS wasn't available in the RPM format until now.

This talk will go through the process of inclusion JBoss Application Server in Fedora. Since 1.5 year Marek is the leader of this huge effort (>200 new packages were added). He will talk about the history, current state and plans for the future. Marek will also spend some time highlighting the most important issues the team encountered over the time.
