I understand both your concerns... But I don't believe it has to be the policy that we cannot advertise beta releases on the main page too. 1.3.5 is the latest (not the greatest with no GA) but we still have a link to 1.2.x, why? It is kind of silly to a dead branch (there will be no more 1.2) but are unsure to advertise the 1.3.5. If the side bar simply said "1.3.5 (beta)", people could find it right on the home page and not be confused of its status. Other apache projects (including tapestry and httpd) advertise their beta projects on the home page, so why can't we?
I have no problem mentioning it on the front page, and said as much in the message you quoted. Also, the announcements page needs to be updated, and I need to post it to our own announcements list. Ted can put it on Struts Central. But I don't want it on the menu with a link to 1.3.5/index.html unless it's going to stay, and we've said we will only host archived websites for GA releases. Once we link to it, it will be indexed, and removing it will break things (or we'd need another redirect.) -- Wendy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
