We’re planning on migrating the community back-end for Igniterealtime.org from Jive Forums to Clearspace on Wednesday. I’m pretty excited about the change, but it will require a couple of hours of downtime on the site. I’ll post a more specific outage estimate in the forums as Wednesday approaches. If you’re interested in getting a preview […]
OSCON 2007 is wrapping up and it was a great conference. Yesterday I gave a talk about Jingle, an extension to XMPP (Jabber) that’s primarily used for VoIP. The slides are available on Slideshare (including a link to download the Powerpoint).
At the beginning of the week, we participated in the XMPP Devcon event. Peter provided […]
I wanted to let everyone know that Jive Software just launched a beta of Jivespace, our new developer community on dev.jivesoftware.com
This is the place where developers can collaborate around Clearspace, Clearspace X, and Jive Forums products. You will also notice that the Community tab takes you to an area for collaboration that is powered […]
We’re making progress on the migration of the community from forums to Clearspace X. A beta version of the Ignite site using the new platform is available at beta.igniterealtime.org. Clearspace carries forward the discussion functionality, while also giving us blogging and wiki document features. The beta site is using a copy of the forums data […]

This all works very well with one major drawback: the […]
Jive Software has been providing free collaboration software to open source projects for a while, and we are now expanding this program to other software developer user groups (JUGs, etc.) We have also simplified the application making it easier for open source projects and user groups to get a free license.
The free license can be […]
We (Jive Software) launched Clearspace X just about one month ago, our external community software product that combines discussions, wiki documents and blogging. [As an aside, we provide free Clearspace X licenses to Open Source projects.] So, why aren’t we using it here on igniterealtime.org yet? There’s lots of good excuses, but we’ve been hard […]
You may remember me asking for everyone’s help a few months back to vote for Openfire. We’re entered in the Enterprise Open Source Reader’s Choice Award in the “Best Open Source Product” category. The deadline for voting is May 31, which is just one week away. If you haven’t already voted, please visit the site […]
After this many years, most web developers have become a little numb to how much Microsoft Internet Explorer is holding back the web. We whine about it, we drop by Position Is Everything to find the appropriate hack to use, and we go about our business. Recently, working on SparkWeb has really brought the issue […]
