The way I see Tapestry and my opinion about wider adoption... Awesome and cool framework for building webapps with a not very large user base.
Having the small user base is actually a good think. Frameworks with bigger communities tend to become monsters and implement features that are not necessary. Developing in such frameworks is usually not fun and new features take a long time to show up because every stakeholder has to be pleased. Not to mention when the stakeholders are companies.... I would never choose Tapestry when it comes to develop something for a very big company where many devs are part of it and other people are going to take over after dev is over. The main reason is that is not a standard and many people don't know what's about or how to use it. I don't believe tapestry has any learning curve at all, it is just not a standard and its natural that devs that are used to go by the book find a big learning curve. +1 in keeping it nice and cool. 2010/2/23 Markus Joschko <markus.josc...@gmail.com>: > On Tue, Feb 23, 2010 at 10:25 PM, Thiago H. de Paula Figueiredo > <thiag...@gmail.com> wrote: >> On Tue, 23 Feb 2010 18:21:15 -0300, Markus Joschko >> <markus.josc...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >>> Don't get me wrong on this.
