Sun Rising on JDS

Internet News: "While writing Exploring the JDS Linux Desktop for O'Reilly & Sons, Sam Hiser and Tom Adelstein realized that Sun's Java Desktop System (JDS) was underrated by many desktop users. And even its creators. So to try and garner some industry-wide JDS respect, the authors Monday launched JDShelp.org. 'We were monitoring the Sun JDS forum and saw that there were users of the software that were outside the scope of what Sun's enterprise distribution and support channels are designed to accommodate,' said Hiser. 'Sun's documentation was not so great; it was the typical rush job to do the software, and they didn't document it so completely,' Hiser said. 'Also, their documentation seems to be written for each other, not for your mom.'"
