Yup.

Well, until they're actually doing heavy J2EE, they don't need RAD.  You 
might find you get enough horsepower from RDi-SOA.  I'd be interested to 
know what they're trying to accomplish in J2EE that can't be done in 
EGL.  Remember, EGL supports full JSF functionality (with a world-class 
JSF editor), and also allows you to invoke any external Java classes you 
might need.
