Since a few days hibernatespatial.org is offline, along with the mailing lists and Maven repositories. Has anyone got news on that?
It's online now, and pointing interested parties at Hibernate's own site since the project is being brought into the Hibernate fold.
I ran into this same issue (hibernatespatial.org has been offline for days). I was able to resolve it by uploading the artifacts to our internal repo and then setting hibernate to timeout almost immediately Maven dependency timeout settings.
The ideal solution would be to upgrade to a 5.0.x version that is on maven central https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.hibernate/hibernate-spatial.

I've been using Dataprep for months, and have a lot of different flows built in one of my projects. I was working with it this morning, but now when I log in, the project in Dataprep is blank, like I'm a brand new user. I'm starting to panic because months of work has vanished! Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do?
Things I've tried without success:
I switched into a different project and I can see that project's
flows listed.

Thank you for your help, you are correct. It turns out we received an email from google with the subject "[Action Required] Please migrate off JSON-RPC and Global HTTP Batch Endpoints" (specifically storage#v1). We were not using this API with the solutions we developed within this project, so one of our developers deactivated it. It showed the affected dependencies, which included the Dataflow API. DataPrep was not disabled, nor did it need to be reenabled before accessing it again...it just lost it's metadata like both Ali T and James commented.
Google Cloud Support recommends exporting the recipes and flows (manually I believe) as the best way to prevent DataPrep working file loss in the future.
I'm trying to deploy a spring-lemon app from github.
But the way the documentation advised to obtain and install the jar, isn't working.
While I keep on trying to sort this out, I wonder if it's possible to make spring-lemon available in maven public repo ?
That would be the perfect way to solve the problem.
I fully agree, and would like to see it in the central maven repository in fact. But, it needs some preparation to get approved. Sometime back I had tried it with some other project, but couldn't get approved.
So, it's low in my priority list now. Could you please create a ticket in GitHub, and it would be great if someone volunteers to take up this before I can.
Update 2021-08-21: 1.0.0.RC6 onward available on maven central
The Sitecore documentation provides some pretty clear instructions on how to configure a Sitecore instance as a processing server:
https://doc.sitecore.net/sitecore_experience_platform/xdb_configuration/configure_a_processing_server
However, many of those steps require enabling/disabling of files manually on the installed server. Has anybody seen or built a patch file (similar to SwitchMasterToWeb) that can disable/enable the appropriate functionality as a patch? I would rather not touch the default Sitecore install and instead rely on automated deployment of configuration patches.
I haven't seen this as a patch and not sure if its possible to do this with just one patch (would love to be proved wrong), but for something like this I've used a Powershell script.
I set up Octopus Deploy to run a Powershell script step after deploy to disable files and change settings if patch files can't do the job.
I can highly recommend the Powercore tools for this kind of thing.

If anybody else winds up looking for this, I've posted some work up on GitHub for patch files for a variety of versions for 8.0:
https://github.com/jst-cyr/Sitecore-Role-Configs
The patches there will do the 'disable/enable/change' for authoring, delivery, or processing. I don't have one for the reporting server.
Sitecore has evaluated POC for same. At this point of time applciable for Sitecore CMS 8.1 rev. 160302 (Update-2). See here-

Recently Sitecore 8 has released and it has came up with lot of exciting new features. So our team decided to move from Sitecore 6.6 to Sitecore 8. Before migrating, i would like to know what all things i should be having in handy. Such as, .net Framework, Hardware configuration, environment etc.
Also, i would like to know the procedure to migrate from 6.6 to 8? I, never involved in sitecore migration project before. Please suggest me some good articles or post here your thoughts.
Thanks in advance. :)
See the Sitecore Compatibility Table for the .NET Framework, SQL Server version and Windows version.
Two common approaches.
1) Follow the Sitecore upgrade path.
2) Package the content, and start with a clean install.
Currently I working on a upgrade with an scripted upgrade that follow the Sitecore path. So I can easy repeat the steps and have the latest content in the databases.
I have some of my findings put down here Sitecore update and modules this article contain also a Related links section. Such as the upgrade white paper from Varun
Depending on how 'cluttered' your existing instance is, you may also want to consider installing a fresh copy of Sitecore 8 and then migrate your data/code to avoid all the hops that would be necessary to get to 8.
May be the following blog might help. Take a look at it.
https://varunvns.wordpress.com/2014/11/11/sitecore-version-upgrade-whitepaper/
I would recommend you make a backup of your site to use as a "sandbox" for the upgrade. Copy your databases and the web root for your site to a new location and then set up an IIS site with appropriate permissions pointing to your copy, and change your connection strings in the copy to point to a copy of the databases you backed up.
Perform the update there and ensure everything is working correctly. Work slowly to make sure you are following instructions correctly and note any special actions you had to take to perform the upgrade. Once you have it upgraded, perform the same process on the "real" site.
If you work with a Sitecore partner, I would highly encourage you to discuss the process with them to learn more specifics about the risks and challenges you may encounter during your upgrade.
We are planning to move over our project management to Redmine and also our Git repositories from Github to Redmine. Are there any potential hazards or drawbacks we should consider? We are a growing team. We will be using these across cross functional teams. Members will range from 20 to 60 or more (in all teams).
I can only suggest you look at this list of issues on the Redmine project's site - naturally, they use Redmine to track them.
We have been using Redmine for a year now (although not with git), we have about 15 users, and have not experienced any issues with it.
If you are concerned about stability, it might be an idea to use an older version with no known serious bugs, rather than the latest version.
I have customized Redmine for our team here. It is a great piece of Software with some really useful and agile-focused plug-ins. We use Redmine Backlogs, stuff-to-do plugins which are great. I was wondering if anyone was successful in setting multiple repositories in a single project? I know that I can create a sub-project and set up a different repo. But there could be cases where there is a need to have more than one repos in the 'Repository' tab of Redmine(For example code might be in development environment initially and then moved to staging and production and so need for two repos for a project) and also to get the issues associated with the commit messages. That is one of the drawbacks for some people.
This could get mandatory if you have a pre-commit hook to refer to issue numbers.
