yes!

It's funny to see jakarta as an academy though.

You think you can get them to extend the offer to all of apache? (some
of our friends at xml may like it, too :)

FW: Together ControlCenter for jakarta projects

What do you think ? Do you think it would be nice to have a free
TogetherCC license so that projects who wish can create UML diagrams as
part of their website docs for example ?

Just make sure thatoh nevermind... :-)

Then you should really try ASP!  Its great!  Not only do you have the 
quick development, quick learning time, but
you can also play with COM components and DLLs and stuff.  

COM programming with ASP is the ultimate maintenance rush.  Microsoft 
should be applauded for it.  

I think we should drop the Maven and Centipede thing and just redo the 
Jakarta site using ASP.  I volunteer you
Alex to maintain it.  :-)

What? And lose my 10-minute investment in learning PHP? No way!

Besides, now I can have fun a whole weekend, just changing the name of a
field in the database. My life would seem empty in comparison, if I got to

Oh yes... The other day when I was standing next to Bill on Steve's 
yacht, I said "How can we bring
Java to its knees?" and after a bit Steve snapped his fingers, raised 
arms so we could see those
sweaty pits and said "Developers Developers Developers"... . Bill 
interperated this for me as "Why
not port OLE 2 Compound Document Fromat to Java under the guise of 
breaking our monopoly
on file formats while secretly getting everyone to use them"

And I bowed down and said "I'm not worthy" and here I am..  You all fell 
for it too!  Just wait!  Soon
we will embrace and extend Java.  Tomcat will require you to edit the 
config files with Microsoft Word
(but it will finally use Avalon with 10 layers of inheritance behind 
every class like Cocoon)...

But Leo!  You didn't realize?  All of Jakarta is in on it!  Jon even! 
 He's writing a new framework based on
turbine that requires to to view all pages in MS Word.  It even 
integrates with Jetspeed to create an
MSWordPortal.

 Once you've been stuck maintaining a few of those
nasty beasts you create in PHP you'll move on to want something else and 
be very appologetic to everyone you
pumped that crud out for.  I've full confidence that one day a smart guy

I didn't reply because I know POI is just one of microsoft's ploys to
bring java to its knees. The idea behind this scheme is to bring the
worsts bits of their own software to java, promote it using massive FUD
(your recent e-mail proof of this, as is JSP), then improve their own
software, and finally block java from windows all together stating as
reason that it contains lots of crappy stuff like POI.

You, of course, secretly work for microsoft and were specifically hired
to start this dirty game.

I was going to keep silent (as you sent me quite a few of micro$oft $$
to do so), but since you now asked for it specifically, I feel obliged
to share this valuable and dangerous knowledge with the jakarta
