Plus all QA work each of us does by testing struts in different environments.
Igor, In our experience, struts will decrease initial productivity due to the learning curve. However, this will be time well spent, assuming you will be getting maintainable application, plus struts is widely used, so there is a good chance you will be able to find talent if needed. Re. individual components. Start with well defined directory structure for your source, images, etc. and ant based build script. Keep adding functionality as you feel that there is a need for it. (E.g.: need to authenticate users. Before implementing your own authentication search the archives, you will find that a lot of problems were already discussed and solved) Mark.
