| 3 | == History == | ||
| 4 | |||
| 5 | * A dotcom is born: eResource | ||
| 6 | * Its focus: commercial real estate on the web | ||
| 7 | ** Big user & advocate of DirectToWeb - more on that later | ||
| 8 | * Later on eResource was renamed NetStruxr | ||
| 9 | ** But name lives on... | ||
| 10 | ** Classes were already prefixed with ER | ||
| 11 | ** Switching to NS would cause namespace conflicts | ||
| 12 | ** Even today, WONDER's classes begin with ER | ||
| 13 | * Folks from NetStruxr, now working on WONDER: | ||
| 14 | ** Patrice Gautier - one of DirectToWeb's original authors! | ||
| 15 | ** Max Muller | ||
| 16 | ** Travis Cripps | ||
| 17 | ** Jim Roepcke | ||
| 18 | * NetStruxr open-sourced a great deal of its code | ||
| 19 | * Lots of innovative, high-quality code | ||
| 20 | * But there were a couple of issues: | ||
| 21 | ** No efficient method to contribute back to NetStruxr | ||
| 22 | *** No CVS repository, no mailing lists, etc. | ||
| 23 | ** Was coded in Java for WebObjects 4.5 | ||
| 24 | *** Needed some rewriting for WebObjects version_5 | ||
| 25 | * Unfortunately, NetStruxr closed for business | ||
| 26 | * Fortunately, the rewritten code was placed into a public SourceForge project: WONDER | ||
