Dear Group, The www.elephantwalker.com Support Site has been available for free to the Orion community since August 2001. This forum allows users to attach files, edit reply's, and close responses as your questions are answered. The application which is used to power the forum had several innovations:
1. Completely j2ee based, with ejb's powering the back-end. Jives uses a jdbc architecture. 2. Loadbalanced across several servers...Jives only recently achieved loadbalancing. 3. Twice as fast as Jives under stressed conditions. 4. File attachments can be up to 2 MB. 5. The "bury" function which allows you to bury your thread. 6. A fast search function. 7. Free to all users. 8. And most of all, a strong user community to answer your Orion questions. We now have over 700 users who use the site, and were the first to provide a web forum for Orion users. We continue to provide the best Orion Support on the planet. Take a walk on the wild side and join the elephantwalker: www.elephantwalker.com/main/gstarted.html Regards, the elephantwalker www.elephantwalker.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Scott Farquhar Sent: Thursday, February 21, 2002 8:11 PM To: Orion-Interest Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Orion forums launched! Atlassian and IronFlare are proud to announce the launch of the Orion forums at: http://forums.atlassian.com These forums will enable the community to post and answer questions, and will be an important resource for help into the future. There are 7 forums covering:installation & configuration, web applications, EJB, security and users, data sources, JMS and general questions. The forums are a free support resource for the community, but are actively patrolled by the Atlassian expert support team, the IronFlare development team and other Orion community leaders. The forums do not replace this mailing list, rather they are an additional location for questions and community discussion. However, the forums do have certain advantages over the mailing lists: - the forums are actively watched by Atlassian, IronFlare and the community - you can 'watch' threads that interest you, rather than subscribing to an entire mailing list - you do not need to subscribe to post or search for answers - the forums are updated in real time, rather than waiting hours for your post to appear Get posting today and join the broader Orion community! http://forums.atlassian.com Cheers, The Atlassian & IronFlare teams PS If you are interested in becoming a community leader/moderator, please email me off list - [EMAIL PROTECTED]
