Hi Karl, |

While many people are enthusiastic about AppFuse, I think what Matt is |
| 4 |
actually saying on that page (the "Sliced Bread" statement) is that |
| 5 |
Springis the best thing since sliced bread. Prolly a tad confusing. |

What I've gathered is that AppFuse is meant to be a get-you-started |
| 8 |
application generator. I think the problem it aims to solve is to create a |
| 9 |
skeleton of an application for you, given your choices from a handful of |
| 10 |
open source options for various layers, i.e. O/R. I think it's especially |
| 11 |
useful for developers that want to use some of these frameworks but don't |
| 12 |
have experience with several of them. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Say I have experience with all the things I want to use, except Hibernate. |
| 15 |
I'd go to the Hibernate site and learn the basics. But if I want an app |
| 16 |
that uses Hibernate, Spring, Acegi Security and DWR, learning each of them |
| 17 |
and piecing together a working starting implementation can take quite a bit |
| 18 |
of time and effort. I think it this particular problem that AppFuse is |
| 19 |
meant to help us with. |
