My inability to contribute at this time is the exact reason that I hesitated to send my email in the first place. I very much appreciate all the hard work and dedication that developers like you provide to developers like me. I apologize if you found it offensive. >If you are not satified with their quality then contribute, that is >what open source is all about. I had thought that ideas were considered contributions as well, and did not intend my question to be derogatory or implying dissatisfaction. I merely hoped to point out that statements on the Struts website concerning nightly builds coupled with 2 consecutive releases of Struts depending on Logging nightly builds was confusing to those not in the inner circle. I had hoped that my feedback would help improve the process for others in the future and be taken into consideration by the inner circle. >Also, this message would have better been posted on the struts-user list. Since my comments were not a question concerning configuration but more an opinion on release policy, I had thought it better suited to the developer list. I understand your frustration to field "complaints" from non-contributors, but contend that spreading the word and putting struts into a few customer sites provides some contribution, however small. I sincerely hope to provide a significant contribution once I have completed my current project. I will see what I can do to help get the next release of Commons Logging out. Thank you!
