I was hoping to find an example application like the mailreader (I
thought it has been rewritten for Shale, at least someone was
announcing it on the list).
Nevermind, I will start with myfaces, and move to shale afterwards :-)

You mean, coming in with a non-functional link with some parameters?
That's not a problem, you can detect it pretty early in the base
action (filter whatever). The problem is, that if all your links are
posts, you will be considered as not-interesting content by the search
engine (only one url, different context). In a B2C business it's a
kind of death...

Hmm yes, but isn't David a RoR convert now?



Anyway, thanx for your time :-)
