Java, in case you move this to the tree in the next few days, please keep track of this security alert:
http://geronimo.apache.org/2007/09/07/mejb-security-alert.html

You might also want to fix that in your overlay.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Geronimo

"Activity on Apache Geronimo has now largely, although not completely ceased. Previous prolific Geronimo committers like David Jencks and others who are at IBM are now working on the Liberty Profile application server."

Indeed. No issues created since 2013 in the bug tracker.

Not sure it's worth our time packaging it.
