Aranea Blog

We started using sourceforge.net about a month ago. SF performs pretty well for cvs and mailinglists, but not the same for web. People reported getting 1kb/s download speeds for the documentation and the pdf files very often came corrupted via download.

The main reasons for moving most of our infrastructure from SF to johncompanies.com were:

• Web hosting caused problems for our users (wiki, forum, blog, changelogic).
• Mailinglists had the prefix $PROJECT_NAME. Writing araneaframework-devel@lists.sourceforge.net was pretty long. aranea-devel@lists.araneaframework.org is 5 characters shorter

Now we have set up our community

• Wiki – http://wiki.araneaframework.org – powered by Moin Moin
• Forum – http://forum.araneaframework.org – powered by phpBB
• Blog – http://blog.araneaframework.org – powered by WordPress
• Issue tracking software – powered by Changelogic

We opened up two mailinglists:

• Aranea devel mailinglist. This meant for the development talk on project Aranea Framework. Register here
• Aranea announce mailinglist. This is a read-only list for annoncements on Aranea. Register here

We will be releasing M2 shortly this week. Be sure to check back.
