Paul, I think this thread contains the key dragons in Lift. Basically, it boils down to: Lift is highly stateful... that has its pluses and minuses. We're working on mitigating the minuses (session replication and persistence).
But one of the key things to keep in mind regarding Lift is how we as a community handle problems. One of the biggest, nastiest bugs in Lift-land crept into the code in the last few days: http://groups.google.com/group/liftweb/browse_thread/thread/558280f51666972f/0291e1224f0f0ce8?hl=en#0291e1224f0f0ce8. Sessions were getting destroyed seemingly randomly. Please look at how the problem was dealt with. There will be bugs in Lift in the future. You can expect that they will be dealt with in the future in the same way. What you will hear from the Lift developers is that we stand behind Lift and when there are problems, we stand behind fixing them. In terms of Scala the language, EPFL has a very similar attitude. We will do what it takes to support the folks who bet their careers and companies on Lift right on down to the JVM.
