Anything already supported by NetBeans will continue to work. I haven't
specifically tried glassfish, but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't.
There are some parts of the tool that we haven't tried (e.g., the matisse
gui editor), but still, a great deal of the tool should work acceptably. Of
course, the whole point of this first release is to get something that will
at least work minimally out there, to try and get more folks to contribute
and help out, and make steady progress over time.
