Great. Thanks Tim. Some minor corrections required to the website: 1) "Prerequisites" section currently says, 1. Sun JDK 5.0+ (J2SE 1.5) 2. Europa (also known as Eclipse 3.3), which is platform specific 3. Web Tools Platform (WTP) 2.0.1 4. Data Tools Platform (DTP) 1.5 5. Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) 2.3 6. Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) 3.3 Should be: 1. Sun JDK 5.0+ (J2SE 1.5) 2. Eclipse 3.3.1 (Eclipse Classic package of Europa distribution), which is platform specific 3. Web Tools Platform (WTP) 2.0.1 4. Data Tools Platform (DTP) 1.5.1 5. Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) 2.3.1 6. Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) 3.3.1 This was discussed earlier also. Please see http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg51362.html
2) In "Downloads: Latest Release - Version 2.0.0" section: release notes<http://people.apache.org/dist/geronimo/eclipse/PLUGIN_RELEASE-NOTES-2.0.0.txt>link points to a non-existing document. 3) In "Installation Alternatives" section: "The plug-in can be installed directly from within the plugin by clicking on the "Don't see your server listed?" ..." "... from within the plugin" is confusing. Was it meant to be "from within the WTP" ? 4) In "Installation Alternatives" section: "Download the plugin from http://apache.org/dist/geronimo/eclipse/2.0.0/ and unzip it into the same directory ..." In http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg50304.html Matt had expressed concerns about direct mentioning of http://www.apache.org/dist/geronimo/ site address. I think we need to come up with something like "the download link in http://geronimo.apache.org/apache-geronimo-v201-release.html " 5) In "News" section: "Presentation titled "J2EE Application Development on Apache Geronimo Simplified using Eclipse". Click here<http://geronimo.apache.org/GMOxDOC11/j2ee-application-development-on-apache-geronimo-simplified-using-eclipse.html>to view: " The link is currently pointing to a non-existent doc in geronimo.apache.orgspace. Referred doc is in cwiki.apache.org space. So the correct link would be " http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC11/j2ee-application-development-on-apache-geronimo-simplified-using-eclipse.html"; 6) In "News" section: Links for "Java Developers Day 2007 in Krakow" and "EclipseWorld 2007" aren't yet pointing to their specific docs, but rather just point to http://cwiki.apache.org/geronimo/. I guess these will be updated once their corresponding wiki pages are created. 7) In "JBoss to Geronimo Migration Tool (J2G)" section: "... migrating the sources of an application written for the JBoss application server or written for Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) to the Apache Geronimo platform." Haven't yet explored J2G plug-in much. So curious to know what we mean by "or written for Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE)"? Does J2G toolkit also help! in creating Geronimo specific deployment plans for generic J2EE modules? 8) I guess "Downloads" section of J2G is still not yet complete.
