This reference application would not simply serve as a
demonstration of the use of an application framework
but would also provide a production grade application
instance that could easily be customized and
repurposed by a developer. Having a reference
application that was also an authoring tool for the
framework would enable it to inspect and model that
framework, which if done right could provide more
value than documentation or example code and provide
for a plugable extension model.

I would also include scenarios involving web
applications that run on multiple device types,
applications that involve content aggregation, and
issues related to digital rights management.

I don't have time for demos for the sake of demos and
my suggestion appears to be beyond the scope of what
is appropriate for Shale or future Struts-related
development so I think it would be in the best
interest of this project if I did not subject it to
the politics of this organization just yet.
