Hi Tomek, in general I like this Idea. Just for your information, do you know http://www.groovytweets.org. This is a twitter aggregator of groovy related tweets implemented by Sven Haiges. He implemented this with grails on the google appengine. have a look at it. This aggregator is not categorized as a new resource for gradle related posts, tweets or whatever should be, but its a good example for an aggregator. Sven keeps interested people informed about new features and problems he came across via his twitter account (@hansamann)
I don't know a good provider about such an aggregator. In my opinion the google appengine and grails is the perfect match for an aggregator about a groovy based build tool, isn't it? regards, Rene Groeschke Am Do, 23.07.2009, 15:14, schrieb Tomek Kaczanowski: > Hi all, > > > my proposal is to create a page which would show how very thriving the > Gradle community is. :) It is a custom thing for projects, to have > kind of a blog rss aggregator which allows people interested in this > project to easily get information about what's new, what's going on, what > new ideas related to this project bloggers have etc. This comes in many > flavors, from the small box on the main page listing the titles of latest > blog posts, to the fully-fledged "planet" solutions like > http://www.planetkde.org/, http://planet.mozilla.org/ or > http://planet.ubuntu.com/.
