Deryl Seale -

I just replaced the 1.9.5 JAR with the new 2.0 JAR and all my Action tests ran lickedy-split! Now I just have to get off my duff and write some Action tests for Roller. Posted in Java at May 07 2003, 05:27:14 PM MDT Add a Comment

Server move should be completed If you're seeing this post, then chances are that www.raibledesigns.com is resolving correctly for you. It's still not working for me from work, but that could be a proxy server / local DNS server issue. I've moved from the server that crashed all the time to a new one that is hopefully more stable. Thanks Keith!

Also, thanks to the folks that have e-mailed me offering their hosting services - it's greatly appreciated. Hopefully, things will run smoothly on this server and I won't have to move anywhere else. I installed JRockit at work today on both Windows and Linux, and it works so well (not to mention awesome monitoring tools), that I'm going to try to use it on this site. It's a 40MB download (same as Sun's JDK ??), but installs in under a minute.

The only error messages polluting my log file these days is the following. It seems harmless, but that means that we should probably not even be logging it. Anyone know of a solution?

WebWork and XWork Mavenized I currently monitor the WebWork mailing list because I'm interested in the framework, and it's good to know what's going on over there. This morning I was impressed to see that one of the developers (seemingly overnight) Mavenized both WebWork and XWork. Very cool IMO. I especially like the Project Reports. If I do promote Moblogger to SourceForge, I think I'll mavenize it first thing. It's a small project at this point, so it'd probably be fairly easy to do. And we all know that some of the most successful open source projects are built on top of good documentation. So the real question is - wiki vs. maven?
