That may well be appropriate ... but one question a lot of people ask me is "where is a Shale mailreader example so I can learn how its different from Struts Classic?". For that purpose, having one as similar as possible to the others is a good starting point. What I mean is a rewrite of the same functionality into new code that > can demo some of the real power of Shale.

A larger scale demo app that really showed off Shale would be very useful as well. It wouldn't *have* to be MailReader 2.0 ... it could be something new (after all these years :-). Such an app would need to cover enough functionality areas to show off Dialogs and the application level events, IoC integration for the business tier, and stuff like that. Sound interesting?

While a "use cases" approach can be helpful, it's also useful to have an end-to-end application example. Yes, you make choices among alternatives in such a design (and those could be discussed or illustrated in corresponding documentation), but people also like to see something complete. -- > James Mitchell > Software Engineer / Open Source Evangelist > Consulting / Mentoring / Freelance > EdgeTech, Inc. > http://www.edgetechservices.net/ > 678.910.8017 > AIM: jmitchtx > Yahoo: jmitchtx > MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Skype: callto://jmitchtx Craig On Oct 31, 2005, at 12:02 PM, Craig McClanahan wrote: > > > On 10/31/05, James Mitchell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > >> > >> Craig, are you working on the mailreader app too?
