After several failed attempts in the past, I finally managed to upgrade from 
5.1 to 5.3. I found two areas had changed significantly... in some respects 
breaking backwards compatibility. The first being IoC service reloading, which 
after a good explanation from Howard about how service reloading affects the 
classloaders, packages and non public members, I did manage to fix by switching 
it off on the relevant members. 

The second was the new Tapestry ajax features and some updates to the prototype 
library. These effectively broke a lot of ajax components and pages we wrote 
based on 5.1, firebug to the rescue though. Overall I am impressed with 5.3, 
its noticeably faster, and appears to be robust. Next I will be revisiting the 
configuration documentation since its been years since I did so, but also 
because pages are no longer pooled so part of my old configuration is now 
redundant. 

I will begin load testing next, just before moving over to 5.3 in production. I 
am very much looking forward to the next set of features, but particularly 
JavaScript abstraction layer to follow in 5.4.

Cheers,
Peter

chenille-kit is a blocker for me, too.
