JBoss is loosing its charm ?

Jboss is certainly facing an evolution competitive front, and basically has not reponded to it.
The competitive fronts are two-fold, and will be recognizable by even the most passing of observers in the middleware market.

1. Seam is losing month-by-month to Spring
2. Jboss is losing month-by-month to Glassfish

Here are some of the proof-points, first the JCP page for Web Beans, the standardization process of Seam:

It shows a slower growth, while Spring rolls out S2AP and myriad other complementary technologies to seize the develper's attention. Seam is dying on the vine, and its own complexity does not bode well for a major roll-out of improvements any time soon

Just look at jboss.org, it is a mind -numbing array of ongoing and outstanding projects with SSO, ESB, and Rules among others seemingly having no delivery date in sight, that translates to project stability. This makes us to think whether JBoss products and projects is under-resourced?
