Hi all! I noticed a lot of people having difficulty migrating from Struts 1 - Tiles 1 to Struts 2 and Tiles 2, so I am wondering if we need to create a sort of "compatibility package"
I've struggled with this very issue. One one hand people are reluctant to upgrade if it means a complete rewrite of their pages. On the other hand, what's the motivation to refactor and use the new API if we maintain a compatible API? A possible solution would be to provide the compatibility layer and immediately deprecate it. That way people can have a migration path but they will know we don't intend to support it indefinitely. I do think we will have to provide some sort of migration path. I doubt many people will jump headfirst into Tiles 2 without one. Greg
