ashkelon

The ashkelon project is proud to announce a new product:

ashkelon lite

"ashkelon lite" provides all the benefits of the ashkelon product without any of the hassle and overhead. It's ashkelon in a war file. There's no need to setup a database, no need to configure _anything_, not even to populate a repository.

Just drop the downloaded war file into tomcat (or whatever servlet container you use) and you've got searchable javadocs "out of the box" presented the ashkelon way (or if you prefer the classic look, you've got it too). ashkelon lite embeds a mckoidb database prepopulated with j2se, servlet, hibernate, dom4j, and junit APIs.

This is the first release of ashkelon lite. Future releases will further tune which and how many APIs to bundle into the product, based on your feedback (please use the ashkelon-users@lists.sourceforge.net mailing list).

Version 0.8.8 of ashkelon has been released.

The primary enhancement to ashkelon in version 0.8.8 is the support for mckoidb in addition to mysql and postgres (both of which have been supported in ashkelon for some time)

jdocs.org first major adopter of ashkelon "technology"

javalobby today announced a new service http://jdocs.org, based on ashkelon. they're using ashkelon to serve javadocs for public consumption (currently using the ashkelon repository manager but with their own jsps instead of ashkelon's dhtml ui).
