Well Andy, we still don't want to hear each other. I never said I like Websphere. Yes, in my opinion it's most complete, most cohesive and most advanced among "big ones" implementation of J2EE. But it's very, very expensive, unnecessarily complicated on one side and behind in an implementation of the most contemporary technologies (although far ahead of Sun or BEA). My site, you had a chance to visit is also based on the JAVA technology, but it's not so called J2EE complained. And I am happy with that, I had a single voice until Gartner joined me in the criticizing unnecessary usage of EJBs and required container. I believe in the vast majority cases combination of JSP, servlets, and Java beans are more than enough. So, my site has exactly that JSP, XSP, servlets, Java beans, XML, Struts, etc., but no EJBs or PHP, a little Perl and CSS. And it has better technology than Websphere and much, much, much cheaper. In some instances, it's free. And it's based on the Open Source. It has built-in (you gave me the opening for shameless promotion), 1. best servlet/JSP container - Application Server 2. best Web Server 3. best MVC (model-view-controller) implementation 4. best XML-based Publishing Framework 5. best search engine 6. best Portal Server based on advanced portlet API 7. best Web Services Development Environment (SOAP-UDDI-WSDL) 8. Voice enabled Web Browser support with TTS (text-to-speech) processing engine and VoiceXML support 9. WAP enabled portal solution 10. best JAVA build tool 11. best JAVA test framework 12. best and fastest XML parser and more...
