You may have notice recently the upswing in companies providing JavaEE servers as run-time plug-ins to Eclipse directly or indirectly through 3rd parties. The servers represented are Apache Geronimo(Tikalk TUM updates Tikal Suite), IBM WASCE based on Geronimo(IBM), and JBoss(Tikalk TUM updates Tikal Suite).
This is important because as a beginner JavaEE developer you usually become accustom to the first JavaEE server as far a a developer choice. Not to mention the obvious benefits to the beginner JavaEE person not having to configure/install a JavaEE server in the dark and thus more time on learning and training.
Obviously, there are some big names absent form this list such as Sun Microsystems, BEA, Oracle, Resin, Jonas(objectweb-francetelecomm) and etc. Hopefully, the ones missing will step up and provide run-times as Eclipse plug-ins and thus benefit all beginning JavaEE developers as whoever doesn't might be odd man out for developer mind share among beginner JavaEE developers.
