Guys thanks for the feedback... 

It seems we might go in for tapestry, as there is a lot of UI to be taken
care of, and somehow I'm not comfortable with tiles or velocity either, they
both can screw up things at unexpected times!! Pure HTML is always safer..

Since there is a lot of 'id' playing in tapestry too it looks lucrative, but
again as most of us know, there is a real 'steep' learning curve involved,
and frankly there is hardly anything 'worth-while' in terms of real world
applications available online.. 

I got my hands on the book for tapestry3.0 in 2003, the online pdf version,
which was purchased at that time and released chapter by chapter...

Can u help me with some places to go for checking the real world examples,
except the wiki and the betterpetshop (that will come in the next thread),
as to where do I start off...

I'm not sure what you mean.  Maybe you can email me personally and  
explain the issues?  I'd be happy to offer suggestions.

Not sure.  I guess it depends on how cleanly separated your code  
is.   At the very least, you'll still have to create a cayenne model  
to replace your .hbm files and replace all HQL dialect with the  
equivalent Cayenne expression API.

If you have an existing Hibernate implementation and it works, I'd  
suggest sticking with it.   If you are starting something new, that's  
when I'd say have a look again.

Cheers,
eric
