Difference between "WildFly Distribution" and "WildFly Preview Distribution" in 27.0.0?

[Peter Gibbons]

What is the difference between  "WildFly Distribution" and "WildFly Preview Distribution" in 27.0.0? In previous releases, such as the 26 series, the "Full & Web" version is Jakarta-EE-8 and the "Preview" version is EE 9.1. That is a clear distinction. In the release notes of 27.0.0.Final I can read that "Jakarta EE 8 and EE 9.1 are no longer supported beginning with the WildFly 27 release". I assume that statement is true for both the the "Full & Web" and the "Preview" version of 27.0.0. So what is the difference between the "Full & Web" and the "Preview" version of 27.0.0, now that EE9.1 is no longer supported?

Hi, 

The differences between the two are covered in the https://docs.wildfly.org/27/WildFly_and_WildFly_Preview.html document.
