My team and I at Lockheed Martin Corporation have been working to
create a social media framework using the Shindig OpenSocial
container.  After several months of development we are excited to
announce that we have been granted final approval to create an open
source project and offer it back to the community [our efforts].  Our
framework is written in Java and is based on open source projects such
as GWT, Hibernate, Spring, and Lucene, to name a few.

The official press release can be found here:

and here is a another writeup that includes a screenshot:

The project is tentatively named Eureka Framework, and we hope to have
more info soon as well as an official web presence.  We are still
working out the details for the licensing, but we are looking at an
Apache-style or LGPL open source license.

Thanks to all of the Shindig developers who have helped out with
questions while we were getting up and going.  We still have a bit of
work to do, but we are excited about the project and hope others will
be as well.
