Good News from TheServerSide

I woke this morning and was doing my normal perusing of JavaBlogs and came across a couple of gems: Middlegen 2.0 VO was released and TheServerSide.com has a new UI. A couple of thoughts I had:

What the heck does VO stand for in the Middlegen Release message? Does this new release support Struts 1.1?
The new UI for TSS looks great, but did they intentionally not set a background color on the page (shows up gray on my screen)? I think they forgot to set a background-color, because the stylesheet doesn't have one defined. Do me a favor, if you're a web developer, change your default background color in your browser to something obnoxious (i.e. purple) so you don't make this same mistake. Granted, most browsers default to white, but this is a mistake that only rookies make.

Comments:

From the Middlegen file activity, it seems the biggest change since the last release is the version number. The Hibernate stuff has been available separately for a while now. Sad as it is to say, I think both Middlegen and XDoclet are withering away on the vine. Both projects have the same maintainer, and it appears that he has moved on to other things. Too bad. Both are needed tools (for now) and both are quite stagnant.

VO - Value Object?

Posted by Richard on January 13, 2004 at 10:07 PM MST #

more likely Very Outdated.

Its Value Object due to the name a refactoring branch was given. I wanted it to be just final so I cannot say why it was decided to use VO. Leave it as a mistery. Middlegen 3.0 has started but it is true that its going slowly - Aslak is busy as it has been pointed out. I have built the Hibernate plugin and it is the most active part of Middlegen 2.0 and I intend to keep working on it. I will also keep releasing builds for the hibernate community as I have done in the past.

Hi mate - Thanks so much for mentioning the background :) We all had white backgrounds by default so we didn't notice it when we got the CSS from the designer! Thanks again :) Dion Editor in Chief, TheServerSide.com

Tell Bank of America that they have amateur HTML designers while you are at it, they never seem to set their background color...I pray that all companies can learn from Sprint and Cingular.
