No :-). But it's not as big a deal now that we have several folks willing to do all the hard work :-).

There are certainly things Maven makes easy, like the site:deploy target, but those all seem possible to do from a standalone desktop as well, using either cron (Unix/Linux systems) or the job scheduler (Windows). Any, it's straightforward to install any software you want on your own zone, so you can have it your way. Basically, zones are a Solaris feature that essentially gives you your own private virtual world (including a root login) on a shared box. Each TLP (such as myfaces or struts) can have one just by asking the infrastructure folks to set it up, as long as the PMC is willing to provide administrative support. One nice advantage is that you can run your own Tomcat instance, for example, so you can have live demos of components or whatever. At the moment, zones are still somewhat experimental and subject to being reinstalled, so keep good backups. But it's a very elegant way for TLPs to take responsibility for some live functionality, without overburdening an already strected infra crew that is doing such a good job of keeping the Apache infrastructure functioning. sean Craig > > > -- > > James Mitchell > > 678.910.8017 > > > > > > > > > > On Nov 5, 2005, at 9:10 PM, Sean Schofield wrote: > > > > > James, > > > > > > I will have to get some more info on the zones from you.
