[seam-dev] Seam 3 space on JBoss Community

[Stuart Douglas]

Perhaps a good place to start would be a seam 3 forum and and a 'Seam 3' entry on the side menu (like what was done for weld)?

Hi Guys,

Honestly, either way this goes, I think that any changes on this should wait until Pete returns from vacation.   This is a major change for the project and one that the project lead needs to be part of.  I'm not aware of all the conversations related to this, so won't comment on the choices.

Pete will be back the first week in April, and since I don't think there is any critical need to make the move I have a suggestion.

If you need new wiki pages, create them in the sfwk.org<http://sfwk.org> wiki.  If you want keep them separate from other wiki pages ( tags, naming, links, whatever ) and self contained.  This way no one will be stopped from doing what they need to do, and either way the choice goes you will already have a head start.

The Seam 3 information does need updating, as I can attest with reviewing the current builds and pages, but lets start with this approach, and then work this out as a team when Pete returns.

My $.05,
Jay

instead of the purpose-built software that we created for our own
special requirements.

How does the wiki software affect your ability to "engage the
community"? Actually, hibernate.org<http://hibernate.org> and seamframework.org<http://seamframework.org> have a much,
much better and deeper track record of community building and
community engagement than jboss.org<http://jboss.org>.

Geez. Use the Atom feed like I do. It's much more convenient. Or spend
5 mins writing a little bit of code to extend the existing email
notification stuff in seam wiki. This is going to be way less work
than migrating content to a new infrastructure.

Huh?! I post links to comments and threads all the time. It's totally trivial.

This is not an issue of what software platform we run on. We can
install as many instances of Seam Wiki as we like. And I don't see why
we can't put legacy Seam2-related content in a different area of the
same site. That's just silly.

Funny, I have not seen it down any time in the past 2 years.
Responsiveness is perfectly fine for me, and can easily be improved by
moving it to a new box in the USA.
