Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to A Technical Paper on Java

Ben,

I agree with Michael. Code examples would help a great deal. Without them, the paper reads like a marketing piece - not the technical argument that you would want it to be. People who have done both Tcl/AOLServer and Java/JSP/Servlets (such as yourself) may flesh out some of your claims with specific code examples on their own. People who haven't had any experience with one or both of these platforms/development environments, will find a lot of declarative statements that may seem unsubstantiated to those who lack your broad background and technical savvy.

BTW, were you one of the early reviewers of the Java Language Specification? I see the name "Ben Adida" mentioned in the preface to the first edition of the JLS.
