Hibernate Challenge

The love for Hibernate abounds. But I think Vic has found a challenger in iBatis. Last night I decided to give iBatis a try and see how long it would take me to create a simple unit test to get a bit of information from my database. To my great surprise, it took less than an hour.

So, I am throwing out a challenge. Specifically to Matt. We have had a couple of conversations about Hibernate and how to get it working. He also made some design decisions he made in his struts-resume application that lends itself to this type of "challenge". Matt, I would like for you to port struts-resume to iBatis. I will be porting one of my applications from Torque to iBatis this weekend to see which I like better. Are you interested?
