I wish I had a good answer for that one. I think we probably need to do some more sustained, focused advocacy of some kind, for one thing. I have the feeling that a lot of the JSF adoption is due to the poorly-informed recommendations of semi-technical managers -- the kind who do more reading than coding. It's tough to sell them (and their risk-averse employers) on the idea of using a technology that you don't often find on candidates' resumes. But, in my experience, developers who already know JSF can learn Tapestry very quickly, and then they end up being much more productive than they ever were with JSF. So maybe that's the selling point: Tapestry as a better, stronger, faster framework for JSF developers. Maybe we need to look at how we can make Tapestry even easier for JSF developers to learn. > I think it would help if there was a consultancy rather than me be an > individual dev. Can you explain this idea a little more? I'm not sure what you mean by a consultancy here.
