My new employer uses Velocity for page display technology. In answer to the question "why?" I get "its our standard". True, but intellectually unsatisfying. Everything else is written in Java/JSP which is in itself a powerful and functionally rich page display technology. Velocity on the other hand appears to be functionally deficient, i.e. the absence of a "for" loop. Even were this not true, why change technologies when we get down to the view layer? Why take things out of a "session" construct only to put them in a "context" construct for the convenience of Velocity when were we sticking with JSP this step would be unnecessary? Not trying to piss on anybody's foot. Looks like lots of folks use it. Looks like I'm stuck with it. But I'm still looking for an answer to the question, "Why?"
