Yes.  And I very much appreciate the extra time you have taken in your recent
emails to lay all of these ideas out in meticulous detail.  I have not been
exposed to a number of these ideas before and it is taking me some time for me
to digest them.

I think that I am finally starting to see where you are going with the
Architecture and I must say is it blowing my mind.  Your explanation of how
Servlets really were components was what punctured the paradigm bubble I had
been working under.   After re-studying the ideas you have laid out in your
recent posts (like the various advantages of using context objects over
instance variables) I am starting to see that you have been working at a whole
abstraction level higher than I have been.

I know that the posts that explained these ideas had to have been a PITA to
develop but perhaps you will be consoled by the fact that they are going to
provide an excellent base for the site documentation that we will need to
develop in order to explain this stuff to the rest of the world.

I must say that whatever effort I have put into helping out with this project
so far has already paid for itself many times over with just the new knowledge
I have gained. :-)


Ted
