Into Out-of-the-Box

Comments[0] by Dave in Roller

Dominic Da Silva points out that Roller has been added to Out-of-the-Box.

Dominic Da Silva: While reviewing the updated Out-of-the-Box 2.0 package listing, I noticed Roller in there. Well done Dave, seems they see Roller as a value added app to any Java developer's software list.

Red Hat Enterprise Portal Server

Comments[0] by Dave in Java

Red Hat has released another Java product: the Red Hat Enterprise Portal Server. The product seems to be closely related to the Redhat Content Management System (formerly the ArsDigita Community System). I say this because the whitepaper was written by former ArsDigita employees (Jim Parsons and Richard Li) and the process for developing a portlet involves writing PDL. The product includes porlets for discussion forum, document management, resource scheduling, tasks, bookmarking, and chat.

Given the anti-Java bias that I have noticed among many Linux devotees (and especially on Slashdot) over the years, I find it interesting and encouraging that all of the "Red Hat Enterprise Applications" (all two of them) are pure Java. Also, the Red Hat Web Application Framework is Java.
