CollabNet SourceCast Collaborative Development Environment
A Full Port to Solaris Operating Environment

CollabNet, a provider of collaborative software development solutions, has produced a full port of the CollabNet SourceCast Collaborative Development Environment (CDE) to the SolarisTM Operating Environment (Solaris OE) as part of its multi-level relationship with Sun Microsystems. CollabNet will also qualify the SunTM Open Net Environment (Sun ONE) Studio for JavaTM Integrated Development Environment (IDE) to utilize source-code repositories within the CollabNet SourceCast environment. In addition, CollabNet is renewing its Sun Developer Connection programSM membership.

Sun ONE Studio for Java is an IDE for JavaTM technology. Based on the modular, open-source NetBeansTM software, Sun ONE Studio is ideal for building and deploying Web Services across multiple hardware and software platforms. Developers using the Sun ONE Studio IDE will be able to directly check source code into and out of the software configuration management system in the CollabNet SourceCast environment.

The current development extends the existing long-term relationship between the two companies. CollabNet is already working with Sun Microsystems and providing the CollabNet SourceCast environment for several Sun collaborative development projects, including NetBeans.org, OpenOffice.org, JXTA.org, Sunsource.net, Grid Engine and Jini.org.

"CollabNet already has a solid relationship with Sun Microsystems and we are excited to be announcing the next phase of our partnership," said Brian Behlendorf, co-founder and CTO, CollabNet. "Extending our relationship with Sun through our support for the Solaris Operating Environment and Sun ONE Studio, allows CollabNet customers to benefit from the proven reliability and scalability of Sun technologies."

CollabNet customers in the fields of science and research, financial services, telecommunications and healthcare realize value through collaborative software development. Porting the CollabNet SourceCast environment to Solaris allows CollabNet to offer its customers additional levels of enterprise scalability, reliability and stability.

"Sun has been working with CollabNet for more than two years. Through our work with CollabNet, Sun has realized the benefits of Web-based collaborative software development for our numerous Sun-sponsored open source projects. By offering the CollabNet SourceCast environment on Solaris [OE], CollabNet will provide its customers with the additional benefits of the premier enterprise operating environment," said Danese Cooper, senior manager, Open Source Programs Office, Sun Microsystems.
