Indeed, use's case is a very important part of the documentation...

Maybe some user could write up something about theirs use's case and all that stuff could be placed in a chapter dedicated to this ("Why or When use HiveMind ?").

The refactoring part is important too... If you use hivemind for "scratch" it's easy, but what are the cost of migrating from XXX to HiveMInd ?

2005/5/25, Howard Lewis Ship <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I've been travelling. The HiveMind documentation explains the
mechanics of HiveMind but not the theory and design, or even the
real-world practice. What's needed are some real-world examples, that
include the time element ... showing how, you code, and test, and
refactor even over a short period of time.

I've been, ah, busy working on a fairly comprehensive example of just
how far you can push HiveMind; I've been calling it Tapestry 4.0 :-)
