The framework adapter is specific to the UI presentation layer, eg "invoke navigation" is supposed to do whatever is native to the relevant environment. But "http" is a UI presentation layer, and neither is a "servlet container". Maybe "PlainServletFrameworkAdapter", to indicate that this adapter does not depend on anything other than the plain javax.servlet apis? Or just ServletFrameworkAdapter as you originally suggested...plus good javadoc to explain the name. Or leave it as BasicFrameworkAdapter, and add better docs to explain it depends on only the "basic" servlet api. Feel free to make whatever choice you prefer here; I'm not desperately attached to any particular name :-) Regards, Simon
