Apache Abuzz with Beehive

Beehive 1.0 is a Component Toolkit for J2EE and Struts

The Apache Software Foundation has announced the release of Beehive 1.0, component toolkit for J2EE and Struts. The Beehive goal is to make J2EE programming easier by building a simple object model on J2EE and Struts. Using the new JSR-175 annotations, Beehive reduces the coding necessary for J2EE.

The initial Beehive project has three pieces: NetUI, an annotation-driven web application programming framework; Controls: A lightweight, metadata-driven component framework; and Web Service Metadata (WSM): An implementation of JSR 181 which standardizes a simplified, annotation-driven model for building Java web services.

Meanwhile, Beehive 2.0 planning is in progress, and Apache has called for ideas on features or capabilities for this next version.
