In an effort to clean out the people project, I have created a  
proposed project at jxta-examples.dev.java.net/ This is injava.net  
rather than jxta.org for licensing reasons and recommended by Helen  
Chen to help with our java.net presence.

The project will contain code snippets and docs for a wide range of  
examples. Most of these are from my book and articles I have written  
over the past few years. Nothing worth a project on their own, but  
far more than is manageable by inserting into other projects like  
platform's examples.

The idea is to allow anyone to use the examples to learn JXTA or cut/ 
paste from the examples. The reason for the project to be on java.net  
instead of JXTA.org is to use a public domain grant of rights or  
creative commons attribution rights for larger examples. The idea  
being to reduce any question that cut and paste is allowed and endorsed.

Others are free to submit content and developer privileges will be  
handed out for new code or changes to code. From time to time I'll  
make a zip of the tree to make it easy to get the whole collection.

I'll also make sure to have a good link back to jxta.org to help  
drive traffic from java.net to jxta.org.
