Matt blogged about Struts Ti. He heard about it at OSCON and it’s a step in the direction of avoiding configuration madness and other weakness’ Struts has been known to have. From the initial plan it seems to aim at geting closer to Rails in ease of use. It looks like a promising start, just hope it doesn’t secrifice too much flexibility.

Slides from OSCON available ‘ere. Some good examples and descriptions of the APIs.

Excellent presentation from Rod Johnson here. He talks about persistence in Java and his experiences. As always there’s good points, and I must admit I felt like some of the points on “how to fail with ORM” did apply to me. But hey, I’m still learning. 😉
