If these changes need feedback .. why not put them in alpha releases? 2.2 Alpha1, 2.2 Alpha2, etc For me, s.th. like this would be great: A.B.C.D D -> Error fixing, security patches, etc C -> new features, smaller api changes even incompatible ones B -> big changes, large refactorings, new approaches, etc. A -> Struts version Maybe you could drop the A - so we are at Struts2 1.1 instead of 2.1.1 Piero --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
