Just thinking aloud... wasn´t Oracle going to migrate Kenai.com to Java.net?
If I remember right, I thought it was part of a two-step process... first replace the old Sun www.java.net infrastructure (it worked for me, but I guess it´s part of mergers to annoy users and re-invent the wheel) with that of Project Kenai, then move projects from Kenai to Java.net (makes sense, given that Java.net has a better brand). Has anyone heard anything?. I went to www.java.net and searched for rexx and netrexx, but couldn´t find the project. Yet I did obviously find it on Kenai.com.

What I heard of that is that java.net will be integrated with project Kenai, and that it is going to run on the Kenai infrastructure. Some projects have been migrated, others not. I personally think that java.net (the name) on Kenai (the infrastructure) is an apt location for the NetRexx source code repository.

I was just asking if projects listed on kenai.com will be also viewable from the java.net domain name and vice-versa. It´s kinda silly to have two domain names for the same service, IMHO. And while "Java.net" makes sense, "Kenai" is meaningless...

Fernando,
Yes, despite what Oracle initially announced, all Kenai projects will at some point move to java.net.
First java.net is moved to "kenai infrastructure" so today we have 2 sepparate "forges" using the same technology. 2nd stage is moving kenai projects to java.net so we essentially get one "forge" with 2 names. 1st stage seems fairly complete but I still see some kenai-areas at java.net (look at the help pages for one)
One issue is that project acceptance rules are very different between kenai and java.net. I foresee many non-source abandoned projects being deleted, some moved to the incubator, etc. That should not be a problem for project NetRexx: it has sources, it has some delivered, buildable, product, and above all, it has a vibrant community of committed developers :-) Regards, 2011/6/24 Fernando Cassia <[hidden email]>
