Here is some ammo for your brown bag session:
- iBatis fits perfectly into the DAO pattern, a "core J2EE pattern".
- Copy one page of Rod Johnson's "J2EE development without EJB".
The one that describes "The failure of Entity Beans".
Let the skeptics read that page and videotape the expressions on their
face.
Good luck,
Hans.

Bwahahahaha!!!!
How about the need for those entity bean things, their XML, their
deployment descriptors, their home and remote interfaces, their DTOs,
and their Business Delegate pattern so you can test the damn
things....
Oh wait. Nevermind. I forgot, "the Entity Beans are my data". Yeah,
and the network is the computer too.
(that's the end of my completely unhelpful response)
Cheers, ;-)

Oh yeah, another thing...
- iBATIS maps resultsets to objects unlike traditional ORM which maps
tables
to objects.
