Java Zope [was: Cold Fusion, Zope, and ACS]

Quick question: What version of Jrun are you talking about? There are severe
structural differences between 2.3 and 3.0, as in, they are almost totally
different products.

I don't think JRun or Enhydra is what I'm looking for. I'm already using
Resin, which provides a servlet engine, JSP compilation, and all that stuff.
JRun does the same thing, except slower* and not in Open Source. Enhydra
(from Lutris) is Open Source and based on Java but uses their own metaphor
(which makes it less portable); on the other hand, they supposedly support
EJB.

Of course, if I wanted EJB, I'd go with JBoss, the Open Source solution.

I think I'm looking for a lower-end, hopefully Open Source version of
FutureTense or Vignette - something based on Java that doesn't cost $250K.

* Not just hearsay. Before we chose Resin, we benchmarked it against
mod_perl, WebSphere, JRun, and Tomcat. Mod_perl, though not Java, was chosen
as a "highwater mark". Resin came very close to mod_perl; WebSphere was
second; but JRun & Tomcat were usually an order of magnitude behind.

(servlet & JSP engine from http://www.caucho.com) and now it's time to add
some static content. Instead of doing that in an ad hoc static html manner,
I'd like to tag on a publishing engine to our site. Zope looks good, but I
want a pure Java solution.
