History Background
Hi Karl,
Would be nice to see some history background page in WIKI for instance, I am
guessing the project started before 2002, am I right? MySQL JDBC driver is
pre-2002. and such techique as sending "COMMIT;" statement to server,
instead of connection.commit();
Also, I believe "Apache Forrest" (Cocoon) moved to "Droids", but Droids can
benefit a lot from ManifoldCF.
I am considering ManifoldCF for retrieving (ping) RSS and indexing with
SOLR.
Thanks,
Fuad

ManifoldCF uses Forrest simply to format its website - for no other purpose.

DBInterfaceMySQL.java:
private static final String _driver = "org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver";
- this class (JDBC Driver) was deprecated in 2002... it is now
"com.mysql.jdbc.Driver", Connector/J
http://mmmysql.sourceforge.net/
" In June, 2002, I joined the fine crew of developers at MySQL AB, and

Oh yes, Forrest is (was) based on Cocoon, and Cocoon provided basic crawler
(and this crawler is now "Droids")... something like that... I don't know
this in depth... but I noticed ManifoldCF mentions Forrest as a web (HTTP)
crawler (connector)?

The project started in 2005, actually, but the version of MySQL it was
originally written to work with was older (obviously). MySQL was almost
immediately dropped in favor of PostgreSQL.
What MySQL JDBC driver are you referring to? I don't believe there are any
checked into the source tree at this time.
Forrest was not rolled into Droids. It is an Apache top-level project. See
here: http://forrest.apache.org/

The project started in 2005, actually, but the version of MySQL it was
originally written to work with was older (obviously). MySQL was
almost immediately dropped in favor of PostgreSQL.
What MySQL JDBC driver are you referring to? I don't believe there
are any checked into the source tree at this time.
Forrest was not rolled into Droids. It is an Apache top-level
project. See here: http://forrest.apache.org/
