Thanks Kevan - maybe this should be under a new subject... I am really concerned about using JSF and want to avoid it. But it seems to be the recommended way to generate your HTML. >From what I understand, there shouldn't be any problem just not to use JSF. >Instead create dynamic markup mostly with Javasript and AJAX.

Geronimo is a lighweight, composable, Java EE-based application server. A full Java EE Geronimo application server contains multiple technologies (JPA, Servlet/JSP, JSF, JMS, etc.). I think of the Play Framework as fundamentally a Web Framework (e.g. JSF, Grails, Spring MVC, etc.). You can run Play applications in standalone mode (I'm not sure if that's what Play calls it). You can also create a Play application, generate a .war file, and deploy the .war file on Geronimo. Hope that helps. --kevan
