I don't know why LOLs got dropped on you, but maybe this has something to do with it. Howard Ship posted this about a week ago. I'm still scratching my head over it...
"The scalability that Tapestry gets because of its rigid page and component structure is one of its clear differentiators; something I've heard that the JSF Expert Group is envious about.

What I expect to do in a later release of Tapestry is change and simplify the APIs so that it doesn't even look like something you can or should do. Howard M.
