I'm not sure how old this PDF is (the cover page says "sponsored by JSS
SYmposium March 2006") , but it looks like Howard himself said this...
Count me +1 against that idea...
Here is the summary:
---quote---
Tapestry 5 will be significantly advanced over Tapestry 4 or anything
else; planned features are
- No more abstract classes.
- No inheritance imposition.
- Annotations directly on fields rather than on (abstract) methods.
- No XML, just templates and annotations.
- Smart class loader; pick up changes to classes automatically and
efficiently.
- Minimal APIs, beyond annotations.
- Aspect-oriented construction of components, using mix-ins.
---end of quote---

I hope not. That would be horrible. There's a good segment of us
still using java 1.4 who would be significantly annoyed at that, and
for good reason.
I know that the tap developers don't tend to concern themselves with
backward compatibility, but it seems you should try to *build* a user
base -- not replace it wholesale.
I really hope this statement is wrong.

I just read on
http://www.virtuas.com/files/JavaWebFrameworkSweetSpots.pdf that T5 will
not have any XML configuration option any more, only annotations.
Is this true?
