I agree with Tom. I think the linked comment thread is more like what you would expect from kiddy console flame war. If you don't like something why put effort into writing about how you don't like it? I would never get anything done ... If someone was seriously concerned about people sinking time and effort into learning a failed framework surely they would provide some actual arguments.
I'm using tapestry for an intranet app with a few hundred users so it wouldn't count as important to some. It is important to me though, because I am responsible and want to deliever a good application. I have doubted my descision to use T5 sometimes (usually not because of technical issues) and other times I've felt almost estatic about it (for example when I successfully contributed a custom block to the beanedit component). About every year or so I do the web-framework round, trying to find out what's new etc and when this current project came along T5 was the only one I found "worthy" of spending any time with because it respects the time I spend. Most other frameworks don't work for me because I will not write any XML (beyond web.xml :) and I will not put up with having to expressing the same thing three slightly different ways.

I would rather see compelling arguments against Tapestry that we could counter by improving the product, than criticism that would only be resolved by buying Howard a new haircut, which really wouldn't improve his coding or his vision of Tapestry.
