There is an old JOTM one in there, but before JOTM was removed it was  
actually run through JNDI and just used the JNDI factory.

For most applications servers, if you're using one of course, they  
have their own transaction manager with the JTA interface  
implementations in JNDI, so if you're not using the "embedded" one,  
then the JNDI factory is the most common.
