Re: Upgrading Struts 1.0
If you used template tag in your application, you must rewrite all JSP files, since template tag no longer exists in Struts. Template tag was pre-tiles tag for component reuse.

Re: Upgrading Struts 1.0
Within the 1.x series, we've made each subsequent release backwardly-compatible with the last, but only with the last. With each release, some members were deprecated, and in the next release removed. The most efficient approach might be to upgrade the binaries one release at a time.

We have upgrade notes on the wiki. Unfortunately they only start at upgrading from Struts 1.1 - there isn't any from 1.0, but they will help you: http://wiki.apache.org/struts/StrutsUpgrade There are also the release notes, I'll point you to the latest - but there are links on each version of the release notes, back to the previous version.
