(*) Future of Struts Development, wishlist to simplify the design.
i.e ActionForm should have bean an Java interface.
In JSF there is a managed bean.
Niall discussed a wrapper to make any bean an action form.
(*) Why is Struts Chain not a simple interface and implementation
of the chain of responsibility pattern? Why does it have
to have portlets and servlets built into the package?
(*) Why does it take so long to get a Struts Release out of the door?
(*) What is exactly in Struts 1.2.4 release?
(*) Political angles between Struts and Java Server Faces?
(*) Postgres Database 8 availability for Windows Env
Subscribe to window postgres sql hacker list instead of
general announcements.
(*) Why is postgres better than Mysql for ACID transactions?
(*) Why is MysSQL ISAM tables faster than anything else
out there (for non-TX stuff).
(*) WebLogic Server, difficult of debugging EJBs thereof
(*) The difficult of getting approval from business leaders,
who sanction the library version for a whole enterprises.
The classic statement: "If it is not a FCS version, then
you cannot use that JAR in our company X.".
(*) Related to the above, avoid polluting the dependencies
of different JARs, just so that such dependencies between
essential libraries cannot be minimised. Some organisation
have to explain every dependency and class in a JAR. Why is
it required? What it is? Where is it exactly been used?
Did I miss everything?
