Re: Jini.org
Hi Jim
I see jini.org is still up.
So I assume someone took care of the bill in the mean time... Thanks for
that.
I believe it would make sense going forward to start moving jini.org
content to the River site at apache.org.
Is there any way we could get an export of the content on jini.org?
Kind regards
Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,
Jeff suggested we could host the content at sourceforge, they've got
MediaWiki running there.
We could get the jini.org domain redirected to apache river and link to
the old jini.org site from apache river. Just a thought.
Anyone wishing to contribute to the current maintenance costs of
jini.org can send money via PayPal to jim.hurley@mac.com.
