23 bugs... ooo, sounds close to beta 2 =)

Just a big thank you to all those who are solving bugs.

Daniel

Okay, if I do that and further refine it by:

All SEVERITY except enhancement
Versions 1.1b1, Nightly Build, Unknown

I am down to 23 bugs.  Is this an accurate representation of what has to
happen before the next beta release?   Are Enhancements planned to be
done before the next beta?

Saying there are 23 known bugs to be fixed sounds much better for the
project than including all the enhancement requests too!

As you might imagine :-), I have a saved query on Bugzilla to select
Struts bug reports.  As of a few seconds ago, it finds 92 of them (many
enhancements, many bugs against 1.0.x, and a few outstanding against
1.1).

The search criteria I use:
- Status = UNCONFIRMED, NEW, ASSIGNED, REOPENED
- Program = Struts

For reference, our bug tracking system (for all Jakarta and
Xml.apache.org
projects) is at:

  http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/
