Ted -- I have a fairly large S1 web app now infused with S2 capabilities. I am experimenting with techniques for calling between the two "sides" and have it working fine using redirect type forward and result mappings. As an aside, the S1 app used Tiles heavily and the modest S2 app is using T2. I was also able to infuse the S1 app with T2, so this modified S1 app is running with S1/T1 and S2/T2.
Now back to my original point -- Is there a supplied facility for preserving parameters across these redirects? It looks like the S1 plugin might work from new-2-old, but I am puzzled going the other direction. Also, I'd like to consider a solution independent of that plugin. Granted, if S1 code is changing it should be migrated, however, there is always that blasted time line! I am trying to explore all the possibilities so as to assist the large S1 installations with the bridge.
