I'd like to address some the current [action 1] build issues. Now that we've simplified the directory structure (thanks Don!), I'd like to spend some time on our build process.


Please comment on the following, if I don't hear back soon I'll go ahead and take care of these...

1. sample apps

action/apps/blank
- I think we should remove the dependency on tiles, blank should not be an empty showcase for how to work with tiles.

2. Dependency declarations are inconsistent. For example, some Maven 1 targets end with...

...
...
struts-tiles-1.3.1-SNAPSHOT.jar (try downloading from http:// struts.apache.org/) struts-core-1.3.2-SNAPSHOT.jar (try downloading from http:// struts.apache.org/) struts-extras-1.3.2-SNAPSHOT.jar (try downloading from http:// struts.apache.org/download.cgi) struts-taglib-1.3.2-SNAPSHOT.jar (try downloading from http:// struts.apache.org/download.cgi)
...
...

So, is it 1.3.1 or 1.3.2? Is it download.cgi or the root of the project site?



And a few more questions:
Q. We have a Maven 1 and Maven 2 build available, is this really necessary? Why not just go with Maven 2?

Q. I know there was apprehension about moving to Maven 2 a while back because of the lack of plugins compared to maven 1. Is this still the case?

Q. How many other committers are committed to learning and perfecting our Maven 1 and/or 2 builds?

Q. What is the difference between these?
 sandbox/tiles/tiles-documentation
 sandbox/tiles-documentation



I have more, but I'll fire this off for now...
