The same to you and everyone on the list!

As it must. The blitz server requires configuration which is
automatically generated by the icegridnode executable and passed via
the --Ice.Config= command line argument. See:

https://trac.openmicroscopy.org.uk/omero/wiki/OmeroGrid

for the proper way to start the blitz server. This documentation will
be merged with the main installation instructions during the release
process for Beta4. Do you know where you saw "java -jar blitz.jar"? We
will need to make sure that reference is also removed.

No. The entire JBoss package will be completely removed in the Beta4
release. This and other changes will be taking place throughout
January and the first part of February if you are working from
trunk. Though we'll try to keep things as stable as possible, let us
know if you have any issues.
