I agree. And don't get me started on the vaguely written documentation on the web site. If I were paranoid, I would suspect there is a very strong commercial disincentive to have clear, easy to understand documentation on the web site with fast and friendly set up assistance in the forums.
Even the for-pay documentation isn't of any great quality. I strongly suspect one or two that I've made the mistake of buying were written by second language English speakers. I would use this public forum to invite Jboss to use some of that "Professional Open Source" revenue to hire excellent writers and proof readers. And when that fails, guess what, you buy the docs because the free stuff is so vague, and you get a sales and consulting call from Jboss within a day of purchasing the docs. So when the vague and poorly written for pay docs fail, you get to hire hugely expensive consultants. I couldn't have thought of a better business model myself, it's sheer genius :-)) View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3851068#3851068 Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&p=3851068 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
