It's certainly good that they're using 1.1, but somewhat unfortunate that they stopped at b2. There were numerous fixes put in after b2, including the entire Struts-EL contribution. Hopefully they can upgrade their support pretty quickly.

I thought people might be interested to know that Ford Motor Company has chosen Struts to use as their officially supported Servlet framework. Interestingly, support is being provided through IBM although I'm not sure what they can offer above the user list =) Here is the statement from the Java Center of Excellent website: <quote> The Ford Servlet Framework is a packaged version of Struts 1.1 provided by and supported by IBM. This download includes Struts provided by IBM with some custom integration of the other Frameworks and services provided by the Java COE. The Java COE will only be supporting the versions of Struts downloaded from here. Application teams should NOT be downloading Struts from the Jakarta website but are encouraged to use the website for learning and documentation. </quote> I'd be interested to hear what people think about the last part of the quote... Currently, Ford is distributing 1.1b2. I imagine there will be quite a delay before they actually distribute 1.1 final (when it comes out), which I don't think is in the best interest of the project teams. --- - Nayan Hajratwala - Chikli Consulting LLC - http://www.chikli.com <http://www.chikli.com> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
