Me too... but the fact that I'm not limited to a broken implementation of 
something makes development easier, too.

I've used WAS myself, although an older version; it's hopefully improved a 
fair amount. At the time, though, IBM's retarded marketers made me resent 
the product, and VAJ was even harder to work with than Eclipse is now 
(sorry, couldn't resist: I like Eclipse if I don't have notepad or IDEA to 
work with), and WAS's stupid licensing for development did nothing to help. 
True fact: one of the most ardent supporters of WAS at that site said, in 
WAS's defense: "It's not THAT bad..."
