---------------------------------------------------------------- BEFORE YOU POST, search the faq at <http://java.apache.org/faq/> WHEN YOU POST, include all relevant version numbers, log files, and configuration files. Don't make us guess your problem!!! ---------------------------------------------------------------- I, like most reasonable people, really would like to read a FAQ before posting to a mailing list. Even on the java.apache.org mailing list page, it urges you to read the FAQ before posting. The welcome message to this list urges you to read the FAQ. Yet there is NO FAQ. I have communicated about this several times with the FAQ administrator, who by now probably hates my guts. On the FAQ (http://java.apache.org/faq/) page it says: " Sorry, the FAQ is now unavailable until we come up with a replacement. This is due to the excessive load that the resource intensive Perl CGI based FAQ-O-Matic caused on the system. We are not withholding it to inconvience you or deny you documentation in order to get someone to come up with an implementation. We are simply making it unavailable for the reasons explained above (it is overly resource intensive). We would love to be able to provide this resource to you since, in reality, it makes our job of helping you easier. Sorry, we cannot provide an estimate on when it will be back. We are looking for new alternatives and would appreciate an Open Source (Apache/BSD Style License) Java Servlet based solution that stores its data in a MySQL database. If you have a good replacement or are interested in creating a replacement, please contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please do not email me asking your FAQ questions or for a tar ball of the previous FAQ. That is rude. I'm not your tech support slave. " Now, I'm not unreasonable. All I would expect is a tar ball of the original FAQ's contents, in HTML with a link from this page...Instead of saying "it's gone, and you cant have it", shouldn't the page say "the perl script is gone, but here's a tar file of the old FAQ" So I'll post my F.A.Q. Is there a mirror for the Apache Jserv FAQ? I guess my frustration stems from all these links that tell me to read the faq before asking any questions, and when i actually try to, it's gone. So I hope the list participants here are tolerant of Frequently Asked Questions Thank you, Mark Williamson -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Please read the FAQ! <http://java.apache.org/faq/> To subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives and Other: <http://java.apache.org/main/mail.html> Problems?: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
