Gotta give HLS credit for that :) > I've done quite a bit of coding with Tapestry 4.0 and was very impressed with the architecture and with how productive I could be. But when I had a need for javascript support, things didn't look so good. The community has been working on it for over a year, and it still hasn't stabilised, while in parallel, HLS is inventing a whole new Tapestry 5 that is not 100% backwards-compatible. To me this says that the architecture is not as extensible as Wicket's, which seems to support javascript quite effortlessly. I'm new to Wicket, so I'm still in evaluation mode, but so far so good.
