My praise too, to Howard and the whole tapestry team. You should be glad for having those great open source projects, which enable you to do your work. If you don't like it, leave it.
We are using tapestry 5 in three applications production environments, and it works without any mayor annoyances - considering that it is not released yet, very good. All the advantages outweight by far the small problems you might have sometimes because it's not a full release yet. Tapestry 5 is easy, fast, and powerful. I don't want to switch to any other web framework, thanks for that. T5 users use their time for coding, not evangelizing, I agree with that. It just works.
