JBoss has been used in production environment for over 6 years now. Glassfish's codebase is over 10 years BUT most of the code is recent. Glassfish v3 (still in beta) has a microkernel (so is Jboss 5) architecture.
Glassfish has command line tools and a nice console. Since Glassfish is from sun, usually it will work well with the latest version of JDK/J2EE -- currently JDK 6/J2EE 5.
Glassfish should work well in windows, solaris and linux. Jboss(from redhat) should work just fine on linux, windows for sure.
community : a much much bigger community around Jboss. Glassfish still forming its community. Books and other 3rd party products are available for JBoss but not for Glassfish.
If something is mission critical and you need to get it up and running right now, you will NOT go wrong going with JBoss. However, if you have some time, in the long run Glassfish will NOT hurt you. Especially, if you're targeting Solaris
.Most popular application server....
