JBoss 3.2.2 Released
The JBoss Group announced the release of JBoss 3.2.2 today.
This is the first major release of JBoss after the departure of several JBoss developers from the project earlier this year.
Starting from this release, the default embedded web container in JBoss switched from Jetty to Tomcat. A separate JBoss+Jetty bundle is still available. This is in contrast to JBoss 3.2.1, where Jetty is the default and a separate JBoss+Tomcat bundle is available.
No new features are introduced in this release. Just a ton of bug fixes and configuration simplifications. For example, JMS configuration is much easier now.

No. Adrian Brock of JBoss Group did point out a code change that would restore the default Tomcat behavior but would break servlet-to-EJB security propogation:

He also mentioned wanting to make this a configuration setting.
I haven't tried this yet. But I'm confident that it would work.
