We have now created a new forum to discuss webtier in Glassfish. You can join the email alias webtier@glassfish.dev.java.net or just post your questions on the Glassfish webtier forum. Please see the announcement from Rajiv.
Here are some examples on what you could ask:
If you were like many others trying to use comet in your app and asked: Glassfish is working out great but does it support comet?, you would get a lightning reply from Jean-Francois that we have the best comet implementation in Glassfish through project Grizzly. He would be proud that Comet implementation has matured over last 2 years! since he first blogged in Jul 2006, when everyone still thought comet was a celestial body :)
If you posted how you could improve productivity using JSF, you would get a very quick answer from Ryan pointing out that you can get a edit-save-reload experience in JSF! by using Groovy and would point you to his blog. You would also get pointers from others to leverage on jMaki, Netbeans support, woodstock and many other components.
If you wanted to know if you could use your favorite scripting language and still leverage all the Glassfish goodies (like clustering, http failover, centralized management, multi-threading capabilities, Java EE APIs, etc), Arun , Vivek, and others would reply in a heartbeat with an emphatic yes for Ruby (use JRuby), Python (use Jython), Groovy, JavaScript (use Phobos), Scala, and others!
They would beat me to it everytime! Isn't this really cool!! Let the discussion begin!
