Blog from September, 2006

OpenEJB has known many homes since it's start in December 1999. We began in Exolab, relocated to SourceForge, found a home in Codehaus and now OpenEJB joins the community of the Apache Incubator. We're very thankful to all our past hosts and are grateful for the service and contributions they've given us in our nearly seven years of existence.

At Apache we look forward to a stronger community bond with the projects that depend on us and whom we integrate with such as Tomcat, Geronimo, OpenJPA, ActiveMQ and more. During our time in the Apache Incubator we will learn the ways of Apache and converge our community ideals together. Our infrastructure such as mailing lists, SVN, JIRA, Confluence, and website have all been transitioned.

We're very excited about our new home the Apache Incubator and the benefits it will bring to all of our collective communities. Let's raise our glass to our former hosts, Codehaus, our new hosts Apache, our community, and to one day a successful graduation! Cheers!
