Ok, let's just make this an official proposal and focus all of this discussion:
I propose that the architecture plan for Struts Action 2.0 includes the
following:
1. A re-design of the API to simplify the framework the users see
2. Backwards-compatibility support for WebWork 2 and Struts 1.x applications
3. Continue to use XWork for a) compatibility reasons and b) the core
implementation of the new API
4. A target GA release by August
This means for current WebWork 2 users:
1. WebWork continues to apply bug fixes for the WebWork 2.1.x and 2.2.x
branches
2. Migration to Struts Action 2.0 should take hours, not days, weeks, but
probably not minutes.
For Struts Action 1 users:
1. Struts Action 1.x will continue to be developed actively
2. Migration to Struts Action 2.0 should take days, using available migration
tools and compatibility libraries
I think this proposal is a good middle ground between folks that want WebWork
2.2 with just package renaming, and others that want a completely new framework.
Please register your comments and if necessary, I'll call a vote so we can
decide this once and for all, and get back to coding.
