In the CVS version it looks like the the servlets are created for each request. I use the servlet instances to cache some common data, so is this a feature of bug? If it is a feature then why was it implemented? One of the main benefits of running an out-of process app server is so you can b

Interesting twist. Apart from losing the inheritance (which I think is a very big deal), doesn't this mean that the template is nominally in control, because it--in a sense--initiates the call to the servlet?
