Hi Aurangzeb, Like you, I think it's fantastic that several people, including yourself, have shown their support for helping Stripes getting some momentum back in terms of marketing and visibility.
For blogs, perhaps we should set up a separate site where people can post. Someone mentioned Grails having a better-looking site than Stripes (I agree), and they also have a site for blogs: http://groovyblogs.org Of course, they also have a magazine, seminars, courses, and the whole SpringSource machine behind them! I won't pretend that we have that many resources. But it should definitely be easier for people to contribute their blog posts, tips 'n' tricks, success stories, and so on. If enough people think that it is worthwhile for me to polish up Rayures 2.0 so that we have a "starting a full-stack project with Stripes from scratch in one minute" solution, I'll see to improving the documentation and producing a release. I'm happy to see that people agree with keeping the Stripes core as simple as it is now and avoid the bloat trap. That doesn't mean that development can stop. We need to work on the 1.5.4 release, as well as the 1.6 release; we need to get the whole Maven issue resolved; and we need to update the docs. And we need people to contribute the effort for that to happen! We also need Will Hartung to write a piece for this discussion. It wouldn't be complete without one of his masterpieces. Looking forward to reading what you have to say, Will! :-) Cheers, Freddy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net Dev2Dev email is sponsored by: Show off your parallel programming skills.
