A must have for any JSP developer.

Thanks for the vote of confidence Dominic. I'll be working hard this weekend to live up to your expectations. One of my chapters just came back from review and I have my work cut out for me.

Dominic da Silva: After reading through the summary of Professional JSP 2.0, and knowing of some of the authors such as Matt, Dave, and Sam Dalton and Dan Jepp, I expect this book to be a must have for any JSP developer out there. Having Struts, Tomcat and MySQL in there as well is a plus.

Yet another universal component model.

Deigo Doval is digging into Open Office and it's programming interfaces and has discovered Open Office's own Universal Network Objects (UNO) component model. Components models like Bonobo, Dot-Net's, CORBA, XPCOM, and COM, and JavaBeans are fascinating, and I really mean that, but how many of these friggin' universes do we really need? I understand that OpenOffice.org wants to support cross-language components, but couldn't they have started with CORBA as Bonobo does, XPCom as Mozilla does, or the Dot-Net model as Ximian does? I guess inventing your own component model is just way too much fun.
