Why was Yttrium created?

Yttrium can be seen as a tutorial for both developers and project managers. One can see how a secure and stable web application should be created and how the management of this blah blah...

Several developement tools are introduced, like the Spring Framework and Hibernate. Other tools to allow proper management, like Maven, Jira or Continuum are explained through this tutorial.


How can we communicate
  • Use the mailing list where possible as more people can get involved and so an archive is available
  • If it is on specific topic, prefix the subject with the topic name, e.g. [maven]
  • Use IRC (irc://yttrium.sourceforge.net on #yttrium) for realtime discussion. Try and summarise that and send it to the list if there was some decisions were made there.
