Apache Anakia vs. HtmlUnit vs. XMLSpy vs. python-sql Comparison Chart

Anakia is potentially easier to learn than XSL, but it maintains a similar level of functionality. Learning cryptic <xsl:> tags is unnecessary; you only need to know how to use the provided Context objects, JDOM, and Velocity's simple directives. Anakia seems to perform much faster than Xalan's XSL processor at creating pages. (23 pages are generated in 7-8 seconds on a PIII 500mhz running Win98 and JDK 1.3 with client Hotspot. A similar system using Ant's <style> task took 14-15 seconds -- nearly a 2x speed improvement.) Anakia -- intended to replace Stylebook, which was originally used to generate simple, static web sites in which all pages had the same look and feel -- is great for documentation/project web sites, such as the sites on www.apache.org and jakarta.apache.org. As it is more targeted to a specific purpose, it does not provide some of XSL's "extra" functionality.
