Good list! Add to that, you're working with open source stuff, which will change right out from under you if you're not paying attention.
LOL... isn't that a hidden part of the definition of open source stuff? The faster development cycle makes it hard to freeze the technology long enough to get fluent in it. Mentally keeping up with new features being released in "reference" releases while at the same time being limited by lagging implementations on certain platforms keep my thinking spread out a bit thin. That's just the nature of the open source beast, though.
Just keep asking questions, you're doing fine. It won't be long until you're answering other newbies' questions. And if you think you're all alone, look back in the list archives for my name... talk about confused! Some of my early posts read like I randomly selected words from the Struts website and strung them together.
It'll come along soon. It will just take getting through all of the tasks successfully one time [meaning several failed attempts happen first] and then it will all click.
The lightbulb will come on soon. :) [Weird, I used that phrase in my note suggesting debugging struts-example.war and deleted it thinking it was too flip.]
Nah.... that's not flip sounding at all. That's how it works for me most of the time. The light simply comes on as if a voice said "let there be comprehension" and suddenly it all makes sense.
