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

Now to my own $.02:

I think, the ability to integrate Java with J2EE should be made more clearly visible as well as an understanding, when to use this. Using the Java Connector could save OpenACS companies quite some hassle for integration of host (mainframe ?) systems. A clear picture how we seperate application, database and presentation logic is in order too at this place.

It is good to know when to use what kind of technology and even better when OpenACS (and AOLserver for that matter) can actually bridge technologies. That's something I'd love to see more clearly in this article, lessening the "bashing" impression you get from first reading it.
