In case of Java, there're many un-cerified-by-Sun projects on Jakarta. Some of them have contrary policies to each other, so developers can choose between them with their own purposes. Here's a very subjective quick comparisons: --------- Java ----------- ------------- Perl --------------- JSP Taglibs / Velocity TT, Mason, HTML::Template ... Struts / Turbine OpenFrame, OpenInteract, PageKit ... JDO / ResultSet / EJB Class::DBI, Tangram, Alzabo ... Cactus / MockObject Test::More, Test::Class ... Cocoon AxKit AXIS SOAP::Lite Log4J Log::Dispatch, Log::Log4perl ... TTMWTDOI (There're Too Many Ways To Do It = CPAN) is considered a little harmfull, but it doesn't mean TSBOGWTDI (There Should Be One Great Way To Do It - P5EE). In addition, I don't feel strong desiration about high-level layers on top of those components, which I can find in P5EEx::Blue. Well, what I really want now is Jakarta in Perl (how do I name it?), which has many certificated (by us) sub-projects inside. Some of which can have contrary staretegies like Jakrta's ones. And it can include Stephen's great work on P5EEx::Blue. Quickstart of such sub-projects can be extracted from: http://www.officevision.com/pub/p5ee/components.html Then, there should be P5EE Blueprint, which illustrates and promotes "How to develop enterprise systems in Perl using P5EE sub-projects". > I didn't put bOP up as a candidate for P5EE, because I don't want to > spend time satisfying other people's desires. This pretty muchly applies to our case ;) Whilest you know some parts of our framework have been extracted as a single module and put onto CPAN (Class::Trigger, Apache::Singleton, Class::DBI::Pager ...). -- Tatsuhiko Miyagawa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
