Hi Martin, I have the same thought on running Java EE 5 on FreeBSD. Currently, for this couple of months, I have already builded the beta Java EE 5 on FreeBSD platform using existing glassfish source and previous jdk1.5 build and/or the latest native FreeBSD jdk 1.5. It seems to be working. I could start up the domain and deploy the quickstart sample hello. However, there may still a lot of work to be done. There are "message queue" code ," nss library" and other part of the code currently, I get it from bootstrap need to be port and build. The most important is to make sure you have ant and maven install and configure on your system. GlassFish Rocks..........
