This is great news!!! As a struggling newbie this is exactly what I've been looking for. I will be eagerly awaiting it's development.
Here are a few thoughts from this newbie's perspective, in case they might help. If you have an idea for an application that will demonstrate every bit of Tapestry, I'm sure it will cover everything I'm looking for. My apologies ahead of time if any of the following is stating the obvious.
First, I'd personally prefer tutorials that don't assume I'm using an IDE. I've had trouble following some tutorials because of that. When I see IDE, I think of hard drives. My editor of choice is vim.
If the tutorial builds the example application incrementally, please include the includes when code is added. I know they may be obvious to experienced users. With the current tutorial when it had me add a bit of code to an existing class, it sometimes took me quite a while, and a bit of Googling, to find the includes I needed to add to make the code work.
As I said, I'm sure the example app will cover everything I'm looking for. At the moment I'm looking for examples of handling relational data. I will also be needing examples of handling security at some point. I've only looked briefly at some acegi examples. I know it handles role based security. Does it also handle "object owner" based security? Using a photo gallery app as an example, I might want to give "admin" users the ability to add/edit photos to/in all photo albums, and give less powerful users the ability to only add/edit photos in albums they created.
