Exactly ... I have yet to figure out why the Tapestry community as a whole is somewhat passive whereas other communities (such as Wicket and Rails) are extremely vocal. Out in the larger world, the best impression of Tapestry comes not from its creators, but from its users, and the users do not talk enough about Tapestry outside of these mailing lists. More blogging, please!
