Maybe I'm just in an off mood today, or maybe I'm missing some basic UI concept, but when I login to java.net as a plain ol' user, I'm not sure I understand what exactly is going on.
The "My start page" doesn't really allow me to create a meaningful page for myself. As a site, java.net is pretty useful to me with projects such as Glassfish and Mustang. The problem is that when I setup an account and login as a regular user, I don't seem to get anything for it, not even the ability to create a nice lil' start page with real information on it. I don't want to necessarily go through the process of joining a project, but I would like to be able to monitor certain projects and be notified when updates are made. Oh, and getting around within the Glassfish project page is somewhat confusing also.
I'm sure this isn't the most popular thing for a Sun employee to be writing about, but I figure I must be missing something. Soo...what am I missing? Am I just not clicking the right things here?
