Hi,

thanks Lukasz for putting up the domain! It think its a great to have such a page. I have a few ideas for the strutsathon page. I believe we should look at it as a place
where we connect to the community. We could:

- give information how to organize a local Strutsathon
- provide a calendar for Strutsathons AND Struts-related talks (Christoph Nenning promised to give a talk in Munich early next year)
- link to community blogs, blog posts and so on
- maybe write a blog on our own, with summaries of latest discussions, recent changes, how-tos… whatever. For example, some information on the new struts-angular archetype would fit perfectly there. Also we could allow our users to write own Struts related blogs, when they have signed an ICLA

I think it would be good to use a Git repository for it. In addition I would like to use Jekyll for the static generator. Jekyll is great with templates and supports blogging. I also think its good for the approaching documentation efforts. We can learn about Jekyll and see if it would be good for our docs or not.

Hosting: as Jekyll can create static pages, we can use it in conjunction with the Apache CMS somehow. There is need to find out if the CMS can build Jekyll on its own or not. However it will be very interesting to find out.

Currently it is hosted by GitHub if I see it correctly. If we use Strutsathon as official Struts-resource, I believe we should host it on ASF hardware. Or do you think different?

Cheers,
Christian

PS: Yes, I am going to help with this

Hi,

As you may have noticed, last time we have organised two hackathons -
called Strutsathon - one in Augsburg (thanks to Christian!) and one in
Warsaw (thanks to me :-)).

Anyway, we think it's a good idea to promote that kind of activity and
allow others to join. Right now we have a domain and Strutsathon
organisation at GitHub.

If you have any related ideas, please post them and join us!
