Kenai Not Closing, Just Migrating To Java.net

It was earlier reported that Oracle would be killing Sun’s Project Kenai. However the Kenai closure is now being projected as more of a migration to java.net. So all projects on Kenai will survive just that they would now be on Java.net

I think we did a poor job at communicating our plans for Kenai.com to you.  I would like to remedy that now.  Our strategy is simple.  We don’t believe it makes sense to continue investing in multiple hosted development sites that are basically doing the same thing.  Our plan is to shut down kenai.com and focus our efforts on java.net as the hosted development community.  We are in the process of migrating java.net to the kenai technology.  This means that any project currently hosted on kenai.com will be able to continue as you are on java.net.  We are still working out the technical details, but the goal is to make this migration as seamless as possible for the current kenai.com projects.  So in the meantime I suggest that you stay put on kenai.com and let us work through the details and get back to you later this month.

Thanks for your feedback and patience.
