Retrain?
It's not rocket science. Writing some Java in your JSPs is not THAT
much harder than ASP. In ASP you really end up doing the hard stuff in
a COM object anyway, analogous to doing the real Java work in a Bean or
EJB or whatever. And the Java approach has the advantage of using the
same language for all the pieces, while it's likely that you are using
VBScript for your ASP and something for COM objects.
