Description
At http://tapestry.apache.org/page-life-cycle.html the documentation about page lifecycle can be improved. It should be more clear to developers what is called and when. Maybe a diagram and short explanations along with good practices what to put in each event method would be in order.
Geoff has made a good effort at http://jumpstart.doublenegative.com.au/jumpstart/examples/navigation/whatiscalledandwhen and the logging of log4j.category.tapestry.events.com.acme.pages=debug can give clues, but I think the lifecycle is so crucial it should be explained in more detail.
Also, the link in the sentence "As with component rendering, you have the ability to make your components "aware" of these events by identifying methods to be invoked." is broken.
