The idea of a JSP like system would bring a lot of the Java guys 
over to D.

JSP has JSTL and EL markup on the JSP pages that work well with 
servlets and EJBs.

I've been fooling around the repos posted here and thinking about 
what it might take to get a framework on top of vibe.d to perform 
similar functions as a Java container.

I appreciate the links / responses guys. It's always worth the 
read.
