CJAN 51<br />

Ostensibly, CJAN.org failed because it was too ambitious - trying to build an open-source project on leading-edge<br />

technology. The final straw for the open-source project was the launch of the high-profile Java.Net website.<br />

Although to this day Java.Net does not offer a catalogue of reusable components, it has a huge community and the<br />

website features are good enough for most Java developers most of the time that developers rarely cite the need for<br />

such.<br />
