The ashkelon project is proud to announce a new product:
"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)
August 17 2004
Version 0.8.7 released with Maven POM (project object model) file support. You can now populate maven projects with ease by directly feeding ashkelon your POM file.

Eitan finally takes the time to give ashkelon a project site. I hope you find it useful / helpful.
