Agreed. I'm working on OSWorkflow (it's actual in a stable state, just no webpage/docs/release yet). I know that the expression language in WebWork could be very useful in OSWorkflow. Likewise, OSCore has some utilities (BeanUtil comes to mind) that could be replaced by those found in WebWork. User management is a huge one. OSUser and WebWork could have some very nice integration points I'm sure (while still not requiring each other). The list could go on for many pages I'm sure. As per Rickard's comment that some components in OS are good and some are... sub par, that is true. But that's a given, I mean not all projects can be in polished shape at the same time. Every project is evolving. I'm working very hard with any spare time I get to polish OSUser, OSCore, and OSWorkflow and provide good documentation and website "marketting". I think WebWork would fit very nicely in to the projects offered by OpenSymphony, but obviously I'm very biased here (OS developer and diehard WebWork user). I'd really hate to see WebWork join up with JBoss for the reasons previsouly mentioned. I don't think it would be a negative move for WebWork, but I believe that it wouldn't really be positive either. Going with OpenSymphony would not only be a positive move, it would also be a good fit technically. -Pat >From: François Beauregard <fbe...@py...> >Reply-To: <fbe...@py...> >To: <web...@li...> >Subject: RE: [Webwork-devel] WW/JavaOne get together >Date: Wed, 3 Apr 2002 22:08:10 -0500 > > > > I think it makes more sense technically to integrate OS and WW. > > Even if technically there is no integration to be made?
