Knowledge of AppFuse and an appreciation of fine wine It's not everyday you see a job that lists "Knowledge of AppFuse and an appreciation of fine wine" as optional skills. I asked Julie if she wanted to move to Napa Valley, but no dice. Too bad - sounds like a job I'd really enjoy. ;-) Thanks to Solomon for the tip.

Unfortunately, I'm still working on AppFuse 1.9.2 and I've given up on estimating when I'll be done. I'm having a hard time finding time to work on it between client meeting and being a good dad. The biggest frustrations so far are the good ol' component based frameworks: JSF and Tapestry. JSF sucks because of JSP and Tapestry is giving me fits because I can't seem to stuff a <span> inside a @FieldLabel. I'd like to think that component-based frameworks are more flexible than their action-based counterparts, but I'm finding quite the opposite so far.

As usual, the only time to do stuff like AppFuse is at night when all chores are done and everyone is asleep. That's just how life is... Mats

How can you say JSF sucks when it's made with real bits of panther?

Too bad! I am not on the right continent... I would have *LOVED* to apply for this one! Maybe I'll have a chance if they decide to open a subsidiary here in Bordeaux ;)
