Hi,
I am looking at Java Web MVC frameworks, with a view to choosing one for a new application.
I have, of course, looked at Apache Struts. But I have recently had a little look at Maverick.
My initial impression is that it gives me much of what I get from Struts, but seems much simpler. I like simple! The examples and docs seem good, but I have found little evidence of other people using it.
Note: I am leaning toward Velocity for the view element of MVC, whichever MVC framework we use.
Has anyone any experiences, good or bad, with Maverick?

I continued with Maverick and find it good.
It is used on one of my personal Web sites: www.fridaysoft.co.uk/index.m ; the released version of this site is very trivial, but the one I have in development does more and continues to work well with Maverick.
I do have concerns about Maverick for the large Web GUI project that I have to design for my job. I am concerned that it doesn't have something like Struts' "modules" and that this may impact modularity of my application.
Maverick does allow you to have multiple configuration files: there is an FAQ about this on their Web site. However, I am not sure whether this is as good as "modules".
