Hi all,
Hi!
They presented evidence that Tapestry has a bad track record on
backwards compatibility.
The Tapestry team is committed to not make any more backwards-incompatible
versions. Tapestry 5's architecture provide us a lot of room to innovate,
extend and tweak how things are implemented without breaking compatibility.
They also mentioned that the fact that Tapestry is a one man project it
is too risky to adopt in our company.
Tapestry has many committers: http://tapestry.apache.org/committers.html.
Take a look at the commit logs at
http://www.nabble.com/Tapestry---Dev-f339.html and you can see that Howard
is not the only one commiting.
Also, they claim Howard has said there wouldn't be any major release of
Tapestry in the
future. This could lead to stagnation of innovation in Tapestry.
He sais that no backward-incompatible release will be made, not that there
will be no major release of Tapestry in the future.
They also presented evidence from Howard's blog that he has divided
attention. He's
doing Cappuccino, Clojure, Grails, etc. and seems to not have focus.
Howard talked about it recently:
http://www.nabble.com/Concerned-about-the-future-of-Tapestry-to25567732s302.html.
For all these and many other reasons I can't go into,
Please post the other reasons.
Any tips from anyone that I could use to convince our team to still go
for Tapestry?
Implement a small proof-of-concept application using Tapestry 5, Wicket
and JSF then compare them about ease of learning, productivity,
reusability, AJAX support, time spent deveolping the application, time
needed to implement a new component, mailing list quality, etc. Show them
the article Sebastian Hennebrueder wrote about Tapestry as part of a Web
framework comparison:
