Much as I love WO, I decided to convert one of my small projects to JSP.
1) It had originally been in PHP.
2) I'd wanted to make it XHTML 1.0 strict.
3) I wanted to learn more about JSP.
4) I wanted to try to incorporate some of the tag stuff in with what I was
working on. It's entirely possible this would be usable with WO, but I
needed to understand it in the context of some of the examples.
It doesn't offer QUITE the abstraction WO does (though, if done
judiciously, it can come close).
JSP's not as fiddly as WO -- there's lots of pieces of WO that have to be
exactly right.
And, if you're not using servlets, but are using in-page scriptlets, you
don't have to recompile, stop and start services, etc. Each page
recompiles when it's changed. Le voila, it's done.

I haven't been following that, at least not yet.

Interesting.
