<p>The company I just started working for is using <a href="http://www.stripesframework.org/display/stripes/Home" rel="noreferrer">Stripes</a> for parts of its web page development these days, and while it seems to be a nice enough web framework it no one really uses it-- it is almost non existent on the 'net. It's not even first in it's <a href="http://www.google.com/search?client=opera&amp;rls=en&amp;q=stripes&amp;sourceid=opera&amp;ie=utf-8&amp;oe=utf-8" rel="noreferrer">google search</a> and the result you <strong>do</strong> get is for its old home page.</p>

<p>So, do any of you people use Stripes? Of your own volition? Do you know of any good tutorials / examples?</p>
