Excellent introduction to Apache Jakarta and beyond

If you ever wonder how to keep up with the open-source explosion especially with respect to Java tools and technologies, here is one book that could come in your assistance. Very well written, simple to understand and easy to read examples explain various open-source technologies that can take you beyond Jakarta and a bit more. May be next year we can see the 2nd edition that can talk about the advances made in the last couple of years or so :-). -SB

Nice coverage of the top jakarta tools for webapps

Many tools were discussed. The Ant tool chapter alone was better than the whole book called "Ant the Definitive Guide". He explains ant in a very gentle way. Good job. You get a good feel of how the industry cranks out webapps with these tools like eclipse,struts,junit,cactus,etc,etc. Good coverage!
