On the last point, "IS TAPESTRY JUST TOO WIERD/ESOTERIC…", I suspect that the
most useful thing I've done in JumpStart is something I did only a few days ago
- adding a summary of what a page can do and how:
http://jumpstart.doublenegative.com.au/jumpstart/examples/navigation/whatiscalledandwhen
I did it because it occurred to me that I'd never come across such a summary in
the Tapestry doco, and it felt like a bit of a revelation, pulling the
fundamentals together into perspective!
Of course, maybe it's just me, and maybe I'll look at it in a week's time and
think "so what", but if others agree then perhaps something similar should go
in the doco?
Cheers,
Geoff
