Adding this kind of how-to to the wiki is a perfect use of the wiki,
although I'd be leery of having a boatload of links directly from the Struts

Absolutely, a bunch of links would be a mess... but a single link under
the Development heading to a page with all the links (think
master-detail essentially) I think would be rather helpful.
Then again, I suppose one could argue that simply better organizing the
Wiki front page would do the trick nicely :) Perhaps *that's* the
discussion that should ensue...

Weny et al, how about adding a HOWTOs link under the Development header
on the site? The resultant page would just be a list of links to
various Wiki pages and/or other web pages with such information. That
puts all that stuff two clicks away. Of course, I'm not sure how much
of "that stuff" there actually *is* at the moment ;)

Vic, are you thinking of a full example app, or of something more like
AppFuse that sets up a project for you?
I'm playing with Maven 2 archetypes at the moment. These are intended
to jump-start application development by setting up the directory
structure, build files, and as much content as the archetype creator
wants to provide. (Maven will retrieve the dependencies, so rather
than distribute them, you just declare them in pom.xml.)
Someplace in btw a mini sample and setup. Set up project w/ ant build,
junit, src, tst, tomcat re-load url (since some people think you can't
reload in development) and make some choices: ibatis, jstl, rico, struts
menu, jtds, etc. and include.
And then super mini sample application, more like template files that
can be copied for master detail.
(Since I don't do "HTML" sites in about a year and one half I would only
spend little time and would not realy test it ... circual: since I would
not use it myself).
Idea is that one would not have to set up a project, that's boring.
Key is that time be spent that choices be as simple as possible.
If you are doing that in Maven, great, especialy that it would keep the
jars up to date to latest. What is the svn url if any?
Let me see what you come up w/ and maybe change it and put it on
struts.sf.net. Also have to wait on a better download of 1.3.
I don't want to learn Maven if at all possible, there's an ant
downloader plugin someplace. But a great idea of auto downloading
latest jars, by the time all the dependencies.... that's a lot of
changes.

(ot/ps: why are some people still doing html websites?? all the dail up
modem users out there ;-) )
