Hi Mitesh, Kedar,

It seem Mitesh also made a number of changes to V2UR1 that did not end
up in V2.1:
Please refer to revisions 1.31.4.1 to 1.31.4.5:
http://fisheye5.atlassian.com/changelog/glassfish/appserv-core/src/java/com/sun/enterprise/admin/server/core

Looking at the commit logs they seem to be related to the Registration
function, but I'd just like to make sure nothing important got lost as
there's over 40 lines of code changed in AdminService.java.

Thanks,
Dies
