I wouldn't make it so black and white, new=jack rabbit, slide=only if you already slide.
Slide has many architectural features that are still valuable. For example we use custom stores to allow for varying storage for any given path to RDBMS, File System and even external integrations such as SalesForce.com. Jack Rabbit may be more standard and have a better/easier to use API, but is still far short of what you can do with Slide IMHO. Michael Oliver CTO Alarius Systems LLC 6800 E.

I read that the project stagnated after developers left due to the complexity of the code (just what I read), is there a trend now towards revitalization? I didn't get that impression from the mailing list but that's just my guess. Jackrabbit sound great except that there is no release yet, but I would say that as a rule of thumb: Jackrabbit for new projects, Slide only if there is previous investment in it. What do you think?
