Ho Hum. Yet another young Turk who knows a whole bunch more about OO
programming than Alan Kay who both coined the term 'Object Oriented' and
first formally described the MVC pattern. Kay must have been drinking
cleaning solvents when he said that they were intimately related.

Holub doesn't seem to really understand MVC (Frame is not a Controller) and
he confuses limitations in current Java tools with flaws in the MVC
approach. The most foolish 'rule' he proposes is that "all objects must
implement their own UI." I strive for "The fundamental logic of the program
must know *nothing* about the UI" This gives me freedom to change the UI at
will without breaking the program. It also allows me to make the program
accessible to scripting as well as to the user sitting at the terminal.

He asks the right question, 'what if I want to change the interface from
mouse/keyboard to pen based or voice recognition?', without facing the
obvious conclusion that if "all objects must implement their own UI", he
just broke them all. If he had used MVC he wouldn't need to modify his model
at all, he could grab off the shelf pen or voice recognition code, and just
re-write his controller. His application would also still respond to the
same scripts.

For a criticism of MVC that I find flawed but much more compelling, look at
some of the folks writing about Morphic.
