I am uneasy with the way that Struts Scripting and Struts Tiles
is being released under the 1.3.4 moniker. It doesn't make any
sense to me. The reason I say this is because they are, in a kind 
of way, a different product. 

Tiles is 1.1 despite the new 1.3.4 name. It is not in its 3rd
version, even if it is part of the Struts 1.3 release. It's almost
like lying :-) How can we justify why there is a 1.3 DTD that looks
identical to 1.1? Where are the new features that deserve its increment
of versions?

For this reason, I believe tiles and scripting should not belong
with the struts distribution. I've tried to view them as part of the
core product (which the examples and taglib align to), but I can't
force myself to believe they are really 1.3 - they are 1.0.1 and 1.3.

I recommend we remove them from the distribution and allow them to
downloaded separately. Or, give them their real version numbers back.
