Yes.

We use 3 tier in production and consider it stable enough.

Personally I would recommend to use appserver, but then again, I'm
biased, as I wrote parts of it :-)

That's hard to tell. Depends on whether you do some kind of special
education, or he tries to find out everything via trial and error.
Documentation is not exactly one of the strengths of GNUe, and while we
are working on a tutorial-like doc, we're not quite there yet.

These packages are all more or less in planning state, there's not much
implemented yet.

I would be curious in which part of Germany you live: I might be able to
offer you some professional services on GNUe if you are interested.
