Fwd: Who is responsible for JDOCentral.com?

[Craig L Russell]

I've discussed this with Dirk, who is willing to redirect the jdocentral.com URL to an Apache JDO URL.

So, where do we want to redirect it?

db.apache.org/jdo

db.apache.org/jdo/jdocentral.html

The real question is whether we want to have a dedicated landing zone that we know is from people asking for jdocentral, or simply land on the main page. I haven't thought too much about this; suggestions welcome.

I would be happy to update the web site if people provide the material. As Craig and Andy have suggested, we can add links or pages to Community/Documentation and we can add to Community/ Mailing Lists. BTW, the Implementations page http://db.apache.org/jdo/impls.html was based on material from JDOCentral.

I agree that the combination of Apache JDO home site plus JPOX site is most of what JDOCentral provided. From the behavior of the web site, the domain is still active but refers to an illegal page. This can be fixed (by the domain owner, which I believe is still Dirk) to redirect to a new location. I'd be happy if the new location were on the Apache JDO site which would then refer the user to forums (on JPOX), mailing lists (JPOX plus JDO plus others on demand), presentations, news, other pages on either JPOX or JDO web site. All the stakeholders have the ability to update the JDO site so this seems to be doable with the resources we currently have on board.

Is the JDO vendor community still serious about JDO?
If so, I think they should fund to keep JDOCentral alive...

I'd like to see the same.

was what exactly ?" To me it was a central point for discussion of a

JPOX, or both.

JDOCentral had :-

marked with what is JDO specific and what is an extension.

2. news about presentations etc.


issues, and JPOX has a forum for real-world use.



implementation.

So I can understand your requirements better I ask the question "JDOCentral technology. I would have thought that the logical successor is Apache JDO, or 1. articles about use of JDO. JPOX has tried to provide an equivalent in the "Tutorials & Examples" section of our docs for each release. All docs are 3. forum for problems/discussions - that became a home to spammers for the final year of its life. Apache JDO has a mailing list for JDO- specific I've no problem with putting/moving any JPOX docs that are JDO- generic across on Apache JDO to facilitate a more logical division between technology and Perhaps you could define what more you mean with "keep JDOCentral alive"?
