[Brian Lavender]

JBoss 7.1 is a fully compliant Java EE 6 web server. Check this video and howto.

The quickstart examples they use actually are the ones from JBoss 7.0

You will need Maven and Java 6 installed. OpenJDK is good. I don't believe that Ubuntu ships with 
Maven 3. You can download a binary from apache.org
https://maven.apache.org/download.html

Get the Maven 3 binary zip and put its bin directory in your path. 

Glassfish also presents some good tools too.

"There are two ways of constructing a software design. One way is to
make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies. And the other
way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies."
