I sometimes wonder if not getting a clean start is why things keep taking so long. :) The codebase was not designed to be easily tested. People are skittish about making significant changes, and so we tread softly and slowly. To mangle an old chestnut: I've been test-first, and I've been test-last. Test-first is better (and faster!). But I probably won't be involved with new development myself, and them that do the work can make the decisions :) Anyway, it does sound like the consensus is to create STRUTS_1_2_BRANCH at the 1.2.2 tag, dub the HEAD 1.3.0, and document the minimum for the HEAD as Servlet 2.3. -Ted. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
