Re: [community] An idea...

Hi,

  I am a little bit confused: Where is the problem?

- we want to have a platform to publish articles
- we have identified free software which can support this
- we have people who might want to write articles
- There already is an objectweb.org site in the web. Why don't we  
use/enhance this one?
If it is a problem of hardware and network capacity, I would sponsor a  
part of my webserver.

What do you think?

Kind regards,

Guido Lüttgens
