[hibernate-dev] Hibernate.org

[Hardy Ferentschik]

I think content wise the current sub project approach will work. Looking
at search.hibernate.org and validator.hibernate.org one can see that there  
is
not so much content for this content pages. The bulk of information is  
really in
the wiki which is a different thing (Clearspace). Btw, what's going to  
happen
with the domains search.hibernate.org and validator.hibernate.org? Will  
they forward
to the corresponding sub project page on JBoss.org?

Will EM and Annotations still be listed as sub projects though. I guess  
 from a current
point of view we could combine them into Core. Not sure whether we have to  
consider
long time users though who might be looking for these projects.

We also have to consider the new Static Metamodel Generator. Currently it  
does not have its
own project page. Will we just add it to Core or will it be its own  
standalone
sub project?
Maybe we should even consider moving the actual source code into a maven  
module. If I remember
right the main issue stopping us from doing so were build problems, right?

Shards I know nothing about. I am not even sure who does. Seems the best  
we can do there
is to move the current content from shards.hibernate.org.
