Re: Community update

FYI, I've created an FAQ page on the new Byline Wiki summarizing this
APLAWS releated thread, along with a few other typical questions (what
servlet container, database & operating system is supported). Any one,=20
please feel free to expand this with more info....

The Byline Wiki is at

  http://wiki.objectweb.org/byline/

Richard, any idea if its possible to make the Wiki appear as the front
page when browsing to http://byline.objectweb.org/. I guess we could
make it simply 301 redirect the page ?
