# CJAN
CJAN - Comprehensive Java Archive Network - was created after Perl's CPAN. It
allows developers to register modules, write documentation and upload tests.
## Module compatibility with different platforms
With a command line tool or via the web interface, CJAN testers can upload the
test results to the website. It also includes information about JVM and Operating
System.
This way, other developers can know beforehand whether a Java module (API, library,
tool, server, program, etc) works with his desired environments.
## Simple infrastructure
Different than java.net, CJAN.org has no intention of hosting projects, source
code management systems, or bug tracking tools. Similarly to CPAN, in CJAN
each module documentation will point to the source code repository (hosted somewhere
else, like GitHub, SourceForge.net, GoogleCode), bug tracking tool, web site, etc.
This way projects won't have to change to be part in CJAN, and it gets easier to
administrate the whole environment and avoid outages.
## Content
The content in CJAN will be simple too, taking advantage of websites like
Reddit, where users can post links, share, comment and vote.
CJAN content management will be similar to DZone and Reddit - collaborative.
## License
The whole project will be licensed under a permissive license. The goal will be
gather a community around the project, and create a board. Then proceed and
donate the project to an organization like SPI.
Pretty much like Jenkins, the idea is have a community roled by meritocracy,
and make sure that the project continue free, useful, stable and fun to
use/learn/share/participate.
