Hi,

This is quite clear about the future of java.net:
https://community.oracle.com/community/java/javanet-forge-sunset

As only project owners can do this, I assume Alex will have to help us
before it stops, but it sounds reasonable to start using Google Groups
lists only very soon. The text archive of all prior conversations may be
available somewhere (we could even put it on the GitHub page under github.io)
but *The Java.net and Kenai.com forges will be going dark on April 28,
2017. *
means those sites and all infrastructure will be GONE after that, shut down
completely, not just read only.

Regards,
Werner
