Are we dumping pre-1.5 support for 2.1 given that Sun say that 1.4.2
will be EOLed to the general public by the end of October this year?
It would be a little wasteful of manpower to support something in the
core that the vender says will be dead a few months after we go GA.

Struts 2 desperately needs a public roadmap, IMO, so here's a quick
strawman to get the discussion started:
Struts 2.1
* New plugins: REST, Dojo, DWR, Portlet, JUnit, and TestNG
* Internal API cleanups
Struts 2.2
* Finalize zero configuration strategy with new Conventions plugin
o Move REST Plugin over to use Conventions plugin, if necessary
o Ensure full legacy support
* OSGi Plugin?
* Public API
Struts 2.5
* 2.5 and not 2.3 to reflect important changes in xwork
o Guice 1.0
o Reworked localization
* JSR 303 (Bean Validation) support
* Built-in command line tool like Grails
I'm mirroring the proposal on this wiki page:
http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/S2WIKI/2.1+to+2.5+Roadmap
Also keep in mind, what we can do is very much constrained by who
volunteers to do the work. Most of what is on the strawman are
features that Rainer, Rene, or I have already indicated we plan on
working on. Still, don't hesitate to throw out ideas that may inspire
someone to take them up.
