well to be honest I am surprised there is no more noise around enhydra at
least on this list. I was expecting more "let's do it" but it could be that
we ask the question on the wrong list???
|Excellent point, and FWIW this is probably the single largest problem

Ok that is always the objection that I make to non-standard extensions to
J2EE, the fact that you are alone pushing your solution and developers have
to learn your framework instead of the industry standard. An uphill battle.
The main reason we are talking about this is
1- Tomcat really pisses me off :) (the slow part and the rest that we saw :)
2- XMLC gets raving reviews from developers
3- It then is a valid candidate as an alternative front-end, remember it is
not about a "standard" publishing server for jboss it is about alternative.
So while this discussion is very educated it should stay focus on
"advantages" of both as opposed to a feature-vs-feature talk.
|Another conclusion from your statement (IMHO anyway) is that any

|at Turbine/Jetspeed and similar this is the biggest problem with them,
|technical points aside: they're just too big.
I am too ignorant of enhydra to say if it is too big or not, I suppose you
talk in terms of features and not in terms of code ? for example Resin is a
spaghetti mess of 3000 lines/classes we call that "big"?
