RE: A Proposal: Opensymphony Conductor

Well, it's been over a week, but the Conductor project at java.net has
finally been approved! 

See below for my original message. 

The project page is now available at https://conductor.dev.java.net/

Discussions are welcome on the dev mailing list there
([email protected]) and hopefully we'll be able to start
bringing together some existing infrastructure code from some interested
parties soon.

Thanks, and sorry for the confusion / delay,

Jason
