java.net 2.0 ...Rocks!
java.net is the old, but nice URL, with the great kenai.com infrastructure behind. I created the x-ray project, which is a vanilla Java EE 6 "analytics" software installed on this blog and sample application for the "Real World Java EE Night Hacks--Dissecting the Business Tier" book as well. What I appreciate:
- Freedom of choice: you can choose between SVN, HG, GIT or external repositories. Even register multiple repos for a single project
- Support for wikis, message forum, mailing lists, or chat. You can even setup the whole website from scratch
- Support for webhooks - you can register webhooks to drive your CI server
- Real Time Feedback - all changes are visible instantenously
- Clean and modern design
- Convenient and fast management - I was able to setup x-ray in 10 minutes during a lunch break...
Why java.net? I used kenai.com for about 2 years and it worked perfectly. java.net can be considered as "kenai on steroids" - it comes with additional features like e.g. git support.

Git support is definitely a great feature! Would get the github addicted folks to here ;)

Kenai.com had git support since 2009. Problem with it is that you can't clone repo in NetBeans in Team panel. Yet, I guess.

Hi Adam,
When I run the mvn assembly:assembly under the x-ray-assembly directory I see the following error.
Missing:
----------
1) com.abien.xray:x-ray:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT
Try downloading the file manually from the project website.
Then, install it using the command:
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.abien.xray -DartifactId=x-ray -Dversion=1.0-SNAPSHOT -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file
Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there:
mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=com.abien.xray -DartifactId=x-ray -Dversion=1.0-SNAPSHOT -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id]
Path to dependency:
1) com.abien.xray:x-ray-testservlet:war:1.0-SNAPSHOT
2) com.abien.xray:x-ray:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT
Cheers,
Daku
