Sylvain points out some reasons why he feels XForms is not adequate for the forms requirements of certain kinds of server-based web applications. However, Sylvain's comments apply to XMLForms, which was superceded by JXForms, and was not based on the final specification for XForms. Can anybody comment on whether the limitations of XMLForms that Sylvain referred to are intrinsic to XForms (the final W3C Recommendation version)? (One of the editors of the XForms Rec says he thinks some of those limitations no longer apply. But I'll let him write about that if he wants to.) +Let me start by pointing readers to Sylvain Wallez's meaty [http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-dev&m=105881304808076&w=2 meditation] on the pros and cons of XMLForms (an implementation of XForms in Cocoon) and Woody (known today as CForms).
