Interesting question. In terms of tooling, we show how to setup with Eclipse, or IDEA. We do have links to Google projects for components directly related to them (such as gae, or gauth). For the mail component we do mention "using mock-mail for testing" (one could also look at dependencies in

Mule is also an open source project and that had more of a relevance when Camel started and was a Mule competitor. That page can go away too. As James brilliantly stated: let's think of the Camel user's needs and address them. For needs that go beyond a developer's need to understand and use Cam

+1 It's actually *that* simple. Let's just think of Camel users. Camel users don't need links to 3rd party products/services to learn how to use Camel. The links to the dzone article and the Camel in Action book were not removed, and shouldn't be! I only removed duplicates. No need to have them

Agreed. I think we need to step back a little and think a little more about our users first and helping them get started with Apache Camel; figuring out guidelines on which pages can/can't have a link to an external document comes second. On 4 May 2011 14:17, Jon Anstey wrote: > Yeah, come to thi

Yeah, come to think of it, the FAQ area is a good place for these kind of common questions: how does Camel compare to Fuse MR, how does Camel compare to Talend IF, how does Camel compare to Mule, etc etc. +1 on keeping those FAQ entries from before. As far as the getting started page goes, I don't

Hi Claus, I think the getting started guides should focus on camel. So a link to getting started with Fuse Mediation Router is at least a bit confusing for people. On the other hand I also sometimes refer to Talend Integration Factory examples when people have problems that are solved in one
