I went through every open bug ticket last night, and out of them all, there only a handful outstanding, and none that are serious; again, why I think this is a beta release.

Perhaps we need a better definition of quality, because to me, beta means there are some minor issues, but the code works, the examples work, and you could start using it in a development environment without problems.

+1 Alpha

As Don mentioned, some of the documenation is patchy. There are things
like references to Bugzilla. The links to the "Components", like
Extras, need to be fleshed out, the "Core" link is useless, and we
need some introductory text for Taglibs.

I might have some time to work on this Monday afternoon, if no one
beats me to it.

There are a few outstanding bugs in JIRA that should be addressed in the next release.

Could you add the bugs you have in mind to the 1.3.2 release plan as
"known issues"? Or, start a 1.3.3 plan that itemizes these. There are
28 open bugs in JIRA now, though I think some of these could be
reclassified. But at first glance, 28 is 28 too many for anything
except an Alpha :)

The first Action 1 release since the recent reorganization, we have a
Struts Action Framework 1.3.2 build to evaluate for release quality.
The release plan is available on the wiki:

http://wiki.apache.org/struts/StrutsActionRelease132
<http://wiki.apache.org/struts/ShaleRelease102>

the Struts Action Framework v1.3.2 test build has been completed and
deployed to

 http://svn.apache.org/dist/struts/action/v1.3.2
<http://svn.apache.org/dist/struts/shale/v1.0.2/>

In my testing, I found the following issues:
 1. Struts faces example webapps both don't work
 2. Taglib integration tests don't work

Otherwise, all the example applications worked correctly.

Once you have had a chance to review this test build, please respond
with a vote on its quality:

[ ] Alpha
[ ] Beta
[ ] General Availability (GA)

We welcome votes from all community members, however, only the votes
of Struts PMC members are binding.

My vote is for Beta quality, as there are no unreleased dependencies,
all the key example apps work correctly, and I've personally had the
1.3.x code in production for over six months without any problems.  Only
Beta because the docs need work and there are a few outstanding bugs in
JIRA that should be addressed in the next release.
