Jason van Zyl announces in his blog:

Since my departure from Mergere I’ve been quietly and steadily working to help start a Maven related company that I’m proud to say I’m a part of. No grandiose launch, no marketing hype, no VCs, haven’t talked to a single analyst, and we hope that you can actually understand what we do by looking at our website. The company’s name is Sonatype and I’m finally happy with the people involved and the direction we’re headed in. We are focused on facilitating the adoption of Maven through our partners network, providing training, and delivering Maven related products for software development.

I’m excited to see an open source business that is as strongly focused on their customers and their business as I know these guys are. They’re great people, and great companies can’t help but come from great people.

Envoi Solutions is proud to be one of Sonatype’s partners. We’re in the process of working on various solutions to help people develop web service/SOA projects more effectively – including a set of archetypes around CXF/XFire.

Congratulations to Jason, Neel, John, Kenney, Eric and the many others involved!
