The AeroGear project has just released 1.0.0.M2c as our first followup since launch!  This release was focused on improving the archetype and quickstart mobile/html5 examples.  They got more than just a new look and feel though.  We added better device detection, improved our responsive design, integrated with JBoss Tools, JBoss AS 7.1, and more...

The [getting started wiki=>https://community.jboss.org/wiki/GetStartedWithHTML5MobileWebDevelopmentWithJBoss] has been fully updated to show you how to build your own mobile/HTML5 based application.  This means built, tested, and deployed to JBoss AS 7.1 in just a matter of minutes.  Giving you a great base to build your own application from.  Then our [deep dive wiki=>https://community.jboss.org/wiki/HTML5MobileQuickstartArchetypeDeepDive] gives you all the details you need to need for our HTML5, CSS3, jQuery Mobile, JAX-RS endpoints and more.
