Building an Open Source J2EE Weblogger by David Johnson is a very interesting use of the potential of java Open Source tools to create web applications, especially the tools from the Apache Jakarta project.
He describes the design of Roller, a java server side weblogger. In his design he makes an intelligent use of Castor for persistence, Struts for presentation, Velocity for templates and XDoclet for code generation. It runs on Tomcat and is built with Ant.
David uses his own dogfood on his excellent Blogging Roller weblog.
