Just thought it was a funny story to share. Was at my friends company yesterday poking around and after doing a bit of back and forth with the dev group found myself being forced to describe some of the differences between the action based frameworks and tapestry.
The funny part was that I started off saying that some of the others were action based, and did catch myself saying tapestry was component based...But upon further thought decided that components really had nothing to do with it as they just happened to be there, could be a page or service for all we care. The only description that fit was calling it an "object oriented" framework. Heh. j
