BJJ.ORG NEWS:


BJJ.Org merges with OnTheMat.Com
The time has come for a transition for the web site BJJ.Org
It is with pleasure that I thus announce the merger of BJJ.Org and OnTheMat.com. It is a 'merger' only in the sense that this was not a financial transaction, but instead one of trust and responsibility.

But the future going forward is clear: They have downloaded all the content from bjj.org, and found a home for it somewhere in onthemat.com. They have their own belt and school databases (with automated submissions!), but have populated it with the data I've collected for a decade. From now on, however, all the future work and credit belongs to them. I may be involved for occasional 'special projects', but on the whole they are taking over the whole site, and by extension the trust from the community.
