The german Java portal
JAXenter
held an online poll last week. Readers were asked which web framework they prefer. Vaadin wins with fantastic 18% (1463 votes):

As a result two Vaadin articles were published:
Introduction to Vaadin:
http://it-republik.de/jaxenter/artikel/Vaadin—ein-Java-Webframework-im-Visier-4057.html
Vaadin and OSGi:
http://it-republik.de/jaxenter/artikel/Und-ewig-gruesst-das-Rentier-Dynamische-Webapplikationen-mit-OSGi-und-Vaadin-4063.html
I think this is a great success and will give Vaadin much attention in Germany.
