In terms of the work, on-demand validation and marshalling does the
same. So if you've been validating after each user input, you should
"marshal" after each user input --- you should do so to a special
OutputStream that doesn't write to anywhere, since you are only
interested in getting the validation as a side effect.

It's not stalled. I think there's something wrong with the auto-posting
machinary, as I posted in that thread. I'll look into it and fix it.

Thank you. I'm interested in knowing which part is not working
correctly. AFAIK, it's just a broken javadoc on the web, and the bundle
is just fine.

Thank you very much for bringing that to our attention, and I'll forward
that to the doc team.

I'm sure our doc team appreciate feedbacks, so please send them along.
The tutorial is by definition meant to be an introductory, so I guess
you are saying we need more in-depth doc for people who finished the
tutorial.
Can you point me a few projects that in your opinion does a good job in
this area? I'd love to copy the way they do it.
