I don't know about other framework like GWT and Flex, but they're both are
very interesting. I've seen the prensentation of Flex and GWT by both of the
project leads and it took my interest. Have your used it before? I don't
like trying out something that hasn't been proven yet.

Hi guys,
I don't mean to cause any depression or controversy but I saw this research
results and thought you might want to know. Because this makes me worry
about the future of Tapestry.
According to the research, Tapestry users declined drastically by 45% for
the first time in 3 years. I was very surprised because of the hype and
sound bytes from Howard and co. surrounding Tapestry 5. I understand users
of Wicket grew by 55% whereas GWT grew by 85%. According to the source,
Adobe Flex users grew by 91% and that seems huge to me but warrants it of
course. Even Howard admits Flex is one of the best.
I think I agree with this research just by looking at the traffic here on
the Tapestry list as well as responses on Howard's blog site on all topics
regarding Tapestry.
What do you think?
Yours friendly,
Rob

Rob is a troll. Take everything he says with a mountain of salt.

Flex and GWT are kind of apples to T5's oranges. The other two are
RIA frameworks - the main client is in Javascript on the server. T5
is a web application, not just web-delivered. The GUI is xhtml (or
the like). It can use Javascript, it can even host flex components
(one of my clients uses both Flex applications within a T5 app). So
don't compare them with T5 (or struts, or webworks) because they ride
on a different level. You could compare making a front-side app on
the client, vs. a web-application. That would be reasonable. But in
this sense, T5 is in the same structural position as the Struts,
WebObjects, Struts2, or plain old JSPs.
A web delivery mechanism is different than a web-based UI. It's like
comparing a web-framework like T5 with Swing or SWT. They're not
really playing the same sport, so to speak.
