I have created number of googlecode projects in attempt to try out new codes and ideas in the past. I now have links to all of them in my consolidated playground area http://code.google.com/p/zemiandeng/
I also kept few Java project templates (Maven based) in there: http://code.google.com/p/zemiandeng/source/browse/ These can get you started a project fairly quickly. See the README.txt in each for more details. I have added:
-
java-project-template
-
servlet-project-template
-
springmvc-project-template
There is also the "java-tool" with misc command line programs that I have collected over the years.
I also have stored a more reasonable preferences with Eclipse workspace, and few more custom Cygwin/Bash scripts setup.
