I might, but I would make it damn certain that scalability tests are performed continuously. Not as an afterthought. I would also get *very* intimate with Wicket's sourcecode to make sure that I understand it fully and completely. Perhaps even import the sourcecode into my own CVS and augment it with whatever I need (/I/ would give those changes back to the general public, but amazon might think otherwise). > however, if you have a long development cycle anyway, it's likely that > 1.1 will be done in a few months anyway, and i believe /that/ really > should be sufficient for creating even a site as large as yahoo or > amazon. But if you use Wicket, that *long* development cycle will become very short of course :-). > for truly large problems like amazon.com, we're going to need some of > these 1.1 features like zero-state. that's all i meant. That might come in handy. But I think amazon.com also wouldn't use vanilla Struts or any other framework for that matter. > i guess i probably should have said $1B not $1M... i've got that > austin powers problem with money... ;-) You were still thinking in Euros :-) Martijn ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
