Rapid Web App Dev
This one got started a bit late so it went very fast.It was a little disappointing. I suppose I was expecting to see an app created from scratch...
Rob Harrop did cover a lot of good info though. Demonstrated integrating Maven and Jetty. He also pointed out some of the difficulties of Maven and showed a good way to get around. He also demonstrated many techniques for testing while developing.
There was a (very quick) demonstration of Site Mesh for site wide formatting. I'm always surprised that more people don't just use servlet filters for that. I guess we'll be seeing copied includes, and tiles for a long time. Site Mesh is a step forward but, I think I'll stick to filters. They're a lot more versatile and allow changing look and feel on the fly.
anyway, off to lunch

Great... now we will have more managers saying here use this ... and have another framework misused.
SiteMesh *does* use Servlet filters. ;-)
Ah, then I need to learn a litle more.
thanks
