Hi,
We will make a comparison table but I'll try to summarize the
technical and non-technical.
Technical
- We use ExtJS for the front-end
- The ExtJS client talks to the back-end using REST via RESTLet, so
everything is accessed via a REST API
- We rely on no CMS, which we don't believe is a real benefit as we
want to go right down to the bare metal to be able to adapt for
clustering, failover, federated querying and a few other cool things
we're working on. We use the filesystem and lucene and that's it.
- The core of Nexus uses the same components and libraries as Maven
itself.
- Full integration with Eclipse via m2eclipse. Tamas and Eugene work
very closely together to provide seamless integration.
- The other IDEs are also following suite, so Netbeans is also
focusing on Nexus (even if they have pluggable providers) and Eugene
is currently working with JetBrains to integrate Nexus indices with
IntelliJ
Non-Technical
- We have 3 FTEs currently working on Nexus
- Nexus will soon have full commercial support and training
- We are testing Nexus with some of the largest dev organizations
there are
- Nexus will be going through full usability testing at one of the
best HCI labs in the world
- We have 3 core Maven folks (myself, brian, and john) working with
clients, users, and other open source organizations to help solve our
metadata problems once and for all.
That's it in nutshell, but we'll make a full comparison and put it on
the Nexus website.

Subject: Sonatype's Nexus 1.0-beta-1 Released
Dear Jolly Maven Users,
After many months of alpha testing we are tickled pink to announce the
1.0-beta-1 release of Nexus. Tamás Cservenák, Brian Fox, Eugene
Kuleshov and Justin Richard have been working very hard to bring Maven
users something we feel will benefit the whole community. In an
unbelievable twist of fate, this might be the first Maven-related
project that actually has documentation with its first releases! We
have a website with some information about Nexus which you can find
here:
http://nexus.sonatype.org
And Tim O'Brien has written a chapter on Maven repository management
which covers all the basics that people will need to get started with
Nexus. We'll have a few more cool announcements to make about Nexus
shortly, but people are probably most interested in how to get
started, where they can download Nexus, and if there are any mailing
lists to join. You can surf around the site, but here are the most
relevant links.
http://nexus.sonatype.org/getting-started.html
http://nexus.sonatype.org/download.html
http://nexus.sonatype.org/mailing-lists.html
We look forward to feedback from users, and you'll definitely be
hearing more from us about Nexus!
Thanks,
The Sonatype Team
