ObjectBridge is a project that moved to Jakarta about 6 months ago
that reminds me a lot of Tapestry (not what it does, but the feel of
the project). It also had a main evangelist/coder/visionary (Thomas
Mahler) that did most of the project. 

http://jakarta.apache.org/ojb/index.html

I was surprised to see it move there, but it seems (at least as an
outsider) that the integration has gone well and gave OJB more
legitimacy. I think he may have been directly invited though (they
didn't have anything comparable in the relational/object mapping
space). Tapestry is in a category with a a lot more perceived
competitors. But it has major "cool" factor and is miles ahead of
Struts in polish.

Is it the same "them" two years later?
