Hi Fabio,
I would guess that Freddy wanted to be able to return either a
List<Contact> or a Set<Contact> so he used Collection because both List
and Set are descendants of Collection.
Regarding the getters, JSP expression language (EL) is what requires
them to start with "get". That really doesn't have anything to do with
Stripes.

Daoud,
At page 48 (email_01 exemple), you're using the getContacts method
with a return type of List<Contact>, but in the final version of the
code (email_36), that same method has a return type of
Collection<Contact>. Why did you change the return types? What is the
difference?
About the signature of the event handlers:
Throughout the book all (or almost all?) of the signed methods are
named getSomething, which are called from the JSPs templates via a
${ActionBean.something} tag. Why/how does Stripes 'cut' the 'get' part
of the method's name. Should all signed methods be getters? I see that
there is some non-getter methods being called in the JSPs, but these
are called explicitly, using the beanclass attribute inside the JSP's
tags.
Don't know, but somehow I think that by cutting the 'get' part of the
method's name turns the more harder to read than otherwise.
thanks for the attention!
Fabio
