As Java Web application frameworks have become more powerful and flexible, they've also become more complex. John O'Hanley's WEB4J framework in many ways flies in the face of this trend: it offers few customization options, but is easy to learn and work with. Read on to learn about the unusual (and somewhat contrarian) development principles behind WEB4J. You'll also have the opportunity to test out the framework by building a feature for a sample Web application.

True, though $20 per developer won't break the bank for most people.
I think the listed price doesn't include access to source code, though, which could be more of a problem.... Dunno if I'd need all the source, but I always end up wanting to check at least *some* of the code in almost any library I use, including the Java core libs.

Stripes (www.stripesframework.org) is a good alternative to this commercial product.

You can't develop your own commercial product using it and sell licenses
and
you can't use it in open source product.

This people is living in a cave, The business model is bad bad. Why they don't understand that with frameworks can't make a living, With tool support and maintenance support is the way to go but not with the framework, nobody will use it.

As somebody said can use Stripes or Wicket better.
