Expressing dissent is not trolling. Sure one could argue that what constitutes trolling is subjective, but almost any reasonable person can discern when the line has been crossed. Francis is a lying mischievous fool that periodically chimes in in hopes of pissing off users, or scaring off newbies.

I hope after reading my post you won't add me to this page - http://wiki.apache.org/tapestry/Tapestry5Trolls I really want to defend Rob :-) Since some of his points are real problems of Tapestry. I will say it again: backward compatibility. Of course major releases shouldn't be compatible, i.e. 1.

hey Rob, if your intentions are this honest, I mean you care for the newbies, and so on, why not start up your own blog, like Joel on Software, and spread your ghospels there about the ultimate truth? you don't like Tapestry, that's it. Ok, you've been heard. What else you want? cheers, Janos a T
