Okay...so today I got my first personal email from a very confused user:

---------------------------
Dear sir,
 
    i'm new to ibatis.thru abator i generated files such as,2 dao classes,3 java classes and 1 sql map file for each table.inorder to retrieve data from a table anddisplay vat i have to do.i'm nt getting any idea by seeing JpetStore.that is different from the files created by abator 4 me.
---------------------------

Okay, so there's a clear language issue.  But beyond that, this person does not understand that Abator is NOT iBATIS (and vice versa). 

Jeff:  Can you suggest a way to clarify that Abator and similar tools are not required, nor are they a "part" of iBATIS?

Tools are very valuable, but we must ensure that iBATIS remains independent and that everyone understands the boundaries.

Cheers,
Clinton
