The Silent Penguin

Don't suppose he would consider donating it to the project? ;)

Does the project have a homepage? Or is the screenshot just to tease us?

This has been discussed on the Cocoon list - check out http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=107543091100030&r=1&w=2

Thank Matthew, I *totally* missed that thread.

The project now has a temporary homepage. Since my hosting provider wont allow me to use Cocoon I had to redesign my site with JSP. Here's the address to the Sentinel section:

http://www.bjohnson.net/sentinel.jsp

I'm only providing screenshots right now until I get the code cleaned up some (I still need to write a whole graphical configuration piece to allow you to change your main sentinel page.. and to add/remove/select different rss feeds). As soon as that time comes (which should be very soon) I'm debuting a new website devoted to the app with available downloads.

But every screenshot you see there is a fully functional screenshot (no smoke-and-mirrors). And it looks the same on both IE and Mozilla (at least Phoenix.. which is what I tested it with).

And yes - if the Cocoon community is interested in what Ive done I'll do what I can to give back to the community. I'm thinking about converting the interested pieces of the sentinel app (like the tv grid? and/or whatever else) into Cocoon blocks.

Oh - and by the way.. this thing does much more than viewing TV. It integrates with Apache James and gives you a complete webmail client that reads directly from the inbox and deadletter tables when using the jdbc mailstores. It gives you the ability to use the Bayesian classification algorithm to classify emails as spam.. so as it learns what spam is, it will automatically deliver emails that get a 90% or greater match to the deadletter folder and allow you to clear or recover emails from spam.

Just in case anyone was interested in more information about sentinel than the television aspect :) There are 3 screenshots showing me classifying an email as spam.
