It may be a valid issue, but so is "Make Struts Faster". My point is this ticket is so broad its long life is a testament to its validity or lack thereof. I suppose it gets down to how each developer views tickets, but I personally see enhancements tickets as requesting a specific feature that can measurably be addressed. If this ticket was broken up into its specific examples, they'd be fine tickets I'd even recommend be marked bugs.
I don't feel strongly enough to make a big deal of this, but it is another symptom of a general "paralysis" I feel affects Struts development. Sure, we need to be careful for backwards compatibility and we want to encourage participation, but there is also value in having a strong direction and making tough decisions to move the project forward. Three year old bugs so general they remain unaddressed, I feel, need to either be fixed or resolved in another manner. If we can't come to grips with our past, how can we lead in the future? </sermon> :) Don Ted Husted wrote: > You might open a wiki page where we could start collecting more > information, and perhaps develop a strategy. > > IMHO, this is a valid issue.
