<snip> 2. Given 1, what does he plan to do when he changes jobs? Re-build the entire framework? <snip> This is an excellent point. At my last job we used a proprietary app framework (for various valid reasons), but when I moved across country and tried to find a new job, I realized just how little I knew about Java. Our framework had encapsulated both the persistence and presentation layers, so all I had to concentrate on was the business logic. Which is good, but when it came time to move on, I really had to scramble (still scrambling, actually) to learn all this stuff that a good Java programmer is supposed to know. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
