Good points Craig... But:
* the standardisation and availability of JSP shouldn't stop us
exploring new ways to do stuff
* hopefully the spec developers (including yourself) keep an ear open
on this group to listen to the things people think about the different
tools.
I personally would not suggest using a non-standard tool for a big
rollout project that is going to need continued support - as much as I
would like to sell my clients my continued existance to support
GNU-Weblook (or whatever) I can't. But JSP is clanky, we can improve
it. We'll only do that by talking about and experimenting with new
ideas.
