Three primary reasons:
* As a reminder that this is open source -- you don't have to
rely on just the JAR files and documentation.
* In case you have a question about how a particular tag
or other function is implemented, you can look and see
without having to download the source distribution.
* In many cases, classes in struts.jar are designed to be
subclassed so you can customize their behavior. This is
much easier if you can see the actual source, not just the
Javadocs.
