Ponto final para o Woodstock

Depois de muitos rumores, chega ao fim, oficialmente, o projeto Woodstock.
Segue comunicado veiculado na lista de discussão:

Hi folks,

As many of you have already seen or heard, Sun Microsystems is officially
stopping all new feature development on Woodstock components. The Woodstock
release 4.2 is the last official version of Woodstock that Sun will release.

This decision wasn't easy and we know it won't be very popular. But in the
current environment, every business has had to make some hard choices and
this was one of those for Sun.

So what do you do if you've invested in Woodstock? First of all, Sun will
continue to support its customers that have built on top of Woodstock 4.2.
The Project Woodstock code is available on java.net
(http://woodstock.dev.java.net) and community members can create new
features or enhancements. Sun will assist with a community development
effort behind Project Woodstock - the first step will be doing a transfer of
information to help people get started (more to come on this soon).

In addition to this, We are researching solutions that will allow users
currently invested in Woodstock to migrate their applications while
leveraging the latest advances in web UI technology. We remain committed to
improving the web developer experience, and plan to prove this with upcoming
releases of JSF, GlassFish and NetBeans.

Thank you for your support and feel free to ask any questions. We'll do our
best to answer (even if the answer is "we don't know yet").

Senior Manager, NetBeans Web Tier Engineering
