I think repo access would require a CLA (don't know I am pretty sure we have filled out one of these in years gone by for another apache project, but it is not difficult to send in another one. http://www.apache.org/licenses/icla.txt > though).

Though I understand the git > philosophy is different, we don't yet have canonical git Not advocating a git philospohy, and I understand the participating for a while concept too. Agreeably I have not been as active as others in terms of output. I have a team that is going to be working on a large project using struts, our internal time line will be in hours not days or weeks and I want to avoid a private forked copy of struts. I think it would be unreasonable to ask the struts devs to take monolithic patches, and I think it would be too much to ask my devs to fork from trunk for each fix, and then merge it into a private fork. I feel the win win would be to not have a private fork, and not create a situation where there would be a monolithic patch. > repos at Apache.

Have you seen the git mirrors? I see Struts listed, but I'm not sure exactly what's there or whether it would be useful: http://git.apache.org/ . Out to the right there's a link to github. Commit access to svn usually comes after submitting patches and participating for a while. Though I understand the git philosophy is different, we don't yet have canonical git repos at Apache.

I think repo access would require a CLA (don't know though). I doubt too many patches would be neglected for any length of time that'd cause a real issue; I feel a commit urge coming on.
