Migration war stories
by Pete Muir
At JBoss World I got a few contacts to start building out some "Migration war stories", and I think we should start the campaign to collect these. If you want to start tweeting that we are looking for people to write up their migration stories, then that would be awesome! I'll do it once I'm settled home ;-), and get a blog written up with more details.
If you get interest from, have them tweet me, email me, or email here, and we can get the process started.
In terms of what we're looking for, I think we really want stories from the trenches. We want to hear about the blind allies people took, and what the right path was. We want to know tips and tricks, expert advice. The story doesn't need to be a complete app migration. It could just be about a particularly tricky area.

JBoss World feedback
by Pete Muir
All,
Just a quick note to say thank you for your work the last months on everything jdf and JBoss Way related. The feedback I've got this week at JBoss World/Summit is that we've delivered the right thing, and that people really appreciate the content, and the recommendations that we make. I think everyone is hungry for more.
I've picked up a few ideas and challenges, and I'll send some more emails about each topic soon.

Re: [jdf-dev] Thermostat and EAP Quick Starts
by Pete Muir
Adding the jdf team.
Well, the quickstarts are very simple, so maybe don't show off performance stuff that well as they are too simplistic?
Maybe take a look at TicketMonster? http://www.jboss.org/jdf/examples/ticket-monster/tutorial/WhatIsTicketMon...

Quickstarts
by Pete Muir
Hi Rado, Wolf,
I know in the past there has been various discussions about a clustering quickstart...
Wolf has started writing some for clustering-esque topics - https://github.com/jbossas/quickstart/pull/283 (currently waiting on review, as we're still in the EAP feature freeze).
I had a long chat on IRC today with a user, and I think it would be very helpful to get a quickstart that shows the use of mod_cluster, as a front end to both a single server and a cluster (that's probably two quickstarts!). Would either of you be able to take this on? Or any other volunteers?

(no subject)
by Jason Porter
I'm working on an example that will use DeltaSpike. I'm looking at using
some Hibernate APIs (Envers, and some of the validators from Hibernate
Validator). Does anyone see a problem with this? The way I've thought
of jdf is not just to say here's how to do Java EE (which what we have
far better than what Oracle puts out), but also how we're extending the
platform and doing things that aren't part of the standard yet. Yes,
this ties you to our stuff, but in a way, isn't that what we want? We
want people to see what you can do with Java that is beyond the spec
using our stuff. Sure, you could stay with the standards and use only
the specs, but you can do so much more with some of the extras we
provide.
We have also done this with Errai in TicketMonster. I don't see this
being much of a problem.

JBoss Collateral Repo
by Marius Bogoevici
All,
I moved Pete's initial stuff (branch jbossworld of ticketmonster) into https://github.com/jboss-jdf/jdf-collateral .
Eventually I think it would be good to mix infrastructure reuse with clearly sharing and separating the artifacts as needed, so I think we need to come up with a meaningful directory structure rather soon, but I think we can begin by sharing this this for now.
Cheers,
Marius
