I agree on the need to define use case scenarios. I for one would like to "fix" the Struts/JSF confusion, and maybe integrate and promote Struts-Faces or a similar implementation, much like we are promoting the use of JSTL-tags instead of the bean/logic taglibs. This, of course, doesn't rule out next generation web apps and special request/resonse types, but we should IMO first and foremost define how much of an evolution or revolution we want. \Anders --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
