Pricey Technologies That Could Use More Tech Support

I’ve currently been working with some technologies like Sitecore, Akamai (actually I take that back, Akamai has decent tech resources) and Prospero which have great company sites but lack public online technical documentation and support. I’ve tried searching for groups and wikis which are unavailable or not very active. Unfortunately these technologies are not as popular as jQuery, Umbraco or even Ruby on Rails so i’m desperate to post about this on my blog in hopes to get more help and info for these technologies from others.

Please help! If you’re using Prospero or Sitecore, please share your experiences on development or integration at the following groups: ProsperoTechnologies and Sitecore - Yahoo group or setup a Tech Wiki?

    Thanks for your kind words on Prospero. Regarding public documentation, you are right, we don’t currently make that openly available. However, please feel free to contact me directly - colin AT prospero.com and I will help to ensure that you get the information you need.

    Hi Steven,

    Sitecore has a very active forum available for free (with registration) via http://sdn.sitecore.net/forum.aspx. We have over 1500 active members and questions are often answered within an hour or two.

    We also have a very extensive documentation site available for developers who work for our partners. If you need access to this, please contact the closest sales office (find the right one via http://www.sitecore.net).

    Good luck!
