HI all, First, there seems to be a problem with the hibernate-spatial mailing list that I was unaware of. The user in question reached out to me yesterday. I will investigate shortly.
Fair point about the website not mentioning the move to Hibernate 5. I will put up a message for this on the site. For the near future what I’m hoping for is that first, we can have the hibernate spatial tutorial updated to version 5, and integrated into the Hibernate User Guide. After that I can have the hibernatespatial.org URL’s redirect to that chapter. To support users of the older versions (3.x and 4.x), we should also make sure that users can download older versions of hibernate-spatial jars, and can consult older versions of the spatial tutorial from the hibernate.org website. As for the mailing lists, I plan on announcing shortly that they will be discontinued by end of year, and that questions should be asked on the usual hibernate channels. Btw, how can I be notified about questions about Spatial on the hibernate forums? Vlad, have you some idea about time frame for starting on the Hibernate Spatial chapter?
