Personally, I wouldn't overreact. Poolman has always been an excellent product, and the fact that the original maintainer isn't working on further improvements won't change that. I'd snag the 2.0.4 release from sourceforge and park it on a CD for safekeeping. Once it's running, it will just keep running, and you can let it be.
And, hey, software doesn't die, it just stops growing. And in the forseeable future, poolman's already way big enough for me =:o) -- Ted Husted, Husted dot Com, Fairport NY US -- Developing Java Web Applications with Struts -- Tel: +1 585 737-3463 -- Web: http://husted.com/about/services Bryan Field-Elliot wrote: > > According to the website: > > http://www.codestudio.com/ > > Poolman is no more.
