Don't ya just love these verbose emails.

What are you trying to do?

OK Here's some info which may be useful.

Some time ago Jon threw together some nice and simple code which
worked as Apache's main FAQ software. This is Jyve. It was based on
Tubine (as it was some time ago). There are a few people who really liked
this software, but sadly for a time its development lagged behind Turbine.

Now more recently some nice people are trying to to take the basic
design of Jyve and convert it to use Velocity and the latest version of
Turbine.

This might also have an portlet interface, but that isn't a priority for
the developers. The portlet interface might only need to be
read only though - to make things simpler.


Of higher priority is perhaps making a stand alone WAR for easy
installation - perhaps using hypersonic SQL like jetspeed.

I personally am a great fan of Jyve - but the proof of the pudding
is the code I can contribute and I doubt I will have enough spare time
before August - I am too busy with my computing and SF book reviews
