Wendy, you are 100% correct on issue one. On issue two, there are multiple problems with the packaged documentation. Not only does the ? character cause problems with windows users, but the documentation is incomplete because of the change to the struts-master pom file I made a while back. Again, neither of these issues affects the maven artifacts... The main reason I want to proceed by making this a new build is this - how do I know the problems are truly resolved, unless I go through the process? In the end, there should be no difference between Musachy's build of the jars (for 2.1.8) and what I am doing (2.1.8.1). The difference is that Musachy and I are working hard to streamline the release process so that where it is not easy, it is well-documented and robust. That way people other than myself and Musachy will be willing to jump in and do a release periodically. -Wes -- Wes Wannemacher Head Engineer, WanTii, Inc. Need Training?
