It's not. Among others, Tomcat is much more forgiving that WAS. Porting the other direction would probably be easier. >- MySql or Oracle database - (porting to DB2 might be some work) Actually significantly easier than WAS, due in part to Hibernate. >- Sun Java JDK - (porting to IBM JDK might be work depending on whether >they used Sun "internal" classes) non-trivial, especially in an open source/community source project. > >Have you considered just running under a zLinux virtual machine? Then all We are working on it. Getting fixes to the JDK and JRE are part of the issues we're working through now, which we hope will make porting future open source Java projects much easier to any of System z, System p or WAS systems. Getting Hursley to understand that "just fix your application to work with our stuff" is not an acceptable answer to the open source community has been a major task that is almost complete. We're hoping the next project, Kuali, goes much easier. /ahw >you would have to worry about porting would be possibly support for the IBM >Java SDK. > >Kirk Wolf >Dovetailed Technologies > >On Wed, Nov 26, 2008 at 10:51 AM, Angelo Corridori < >[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> There is an open source course management system called Sakai that has >> blogs and Wiki functionality (and many other functions as well).
