We have a very large financial services applicaiton built with Tapestry 3 and it meets all the requirements for the project. But in looking ahead, I am trying to get some data to guide technology decisions for the project.
We did migrate our website from tapestry 3 to tapestry 4. That was a complex and long process (not everything was related to tapestry 4... some other stuff was related to Tomcat JK, etc.). Now management keeps asking to add new features and with all the code cleanup that we were able to do in the move from Tapestry 3 to Tapestry 4, changes have become way easier to manage. The migration was completly worth it. Hivemind is not straightforward (lets say there lacks documentation for doing several simple tasks) but it makes the whole framework way more flexible. These days it is not too bad, you can probably find copy/paste stuff for most common tasks in this mailing list. Hivemind reduces alot the amount of bad hacking in the code and allows to customize the framework in a clean way. Thanks, Henri.
