I started the Petshop with the ambitious goal to learn Java/Tapestry with "hands on experience", and become proficient with both rapidly. I failed miserably. I'm not that smart and Java/J2EE is not that easy (this two reasons appear to be somewhat connected). So, with this new found enlightenment I am now *actually* reading Java/J2EE books and related material. ****************************************************************************** BTW, if any of you guys reading this has some book recommendations please share them. Books I have now: - Learning Java(tm), 2nd Edition By Jonathan Knudsen, Pat Niemeyer - O'Reilly - Effective Java , By Joshua Bloch - Sun - Java Servlet Programming, 2nd Edition By Jason Hunter - O'Reilly - Java I/O, By Elliotte Rusty Harold - O'Reilly - Database Programming with JDBC and Java, Second Edition By George Reese O'Reilly - Ant: The Definitive Guide, By Eric M.

I think so too. Unfortunately I can't recommend the current version of the Tapestry Petshop to newbies, it's plagued with design problems and all around bad code. I'm having a long due vacation in December in which I plan to work in the Tapestry Petshop and I'm thinking that a new and improved Petshop may come to light before the end of the year.
