I hope you think this is funny Jack, sometimes I amuse myself:
I think the shortest answer is that anyone un-happy (with multiple projects?) can: A. fork any friendly license like ASF and refactor under the terms of license, maintain the source code or see if they can develop a user community, B: use another non Struts project that they like better.
Who cares what the votes are, if any, and who cares if they have no time to report on everything. The more projects the better, let Darwin decide. Right now Struts has a large % production market share, so unlikley that anything bad could happen. I used Struts when it was not #1, I don't care much for "popular" opinion, I use my own analysis. (A good read is chapter on lemings by Waren Buffet book).
What was that platform where they tell us the "ONE" true way and their marketed "ONE" direction. Who knows where the market will go.
I have a request for the comitters: "What direction will the stock market go, and please send me a privately the ONE stocks that will be largest % mover for the coming week every Monday before the market opens.".
This would make me a happier Struts user and would keep Struts in good light in my eyes. If you don't do that, I will think less of you the developers, and I say ASF should not let you comit any more code as pumishment for not making me happy. You OWE me that, for the privilage of me linking to your jars.
Else I will imeditley start using another MVC and tell all my friend to do the same! ;-)
Seriously gang, thanks for making it easy for us to have sucess full proejct. Thanks for all the Struts modules and your code donations to the community. Source code = good.

Thanks for the answer. My question is how the community was taken into account and whether the details of the voting is secret or open?
Are the votes public or is the issue raised publicly? Or is the community taken into account privately? I am just trying to get a feeling for what the direction of Struts is likely to be and I cannot do this without knowing what the workings are. If they are private, then they are. If the votes are public, I would like to know what they were.

The PMC makes such decisions, but takes the community into account when making the decision.

At the risk of being flamed, might I ask if this debate, vote, whatever was public or limited to the PMC? And, might I ask if this was sub rosa (so to speak), is that typical? I do not mean to suggest anything but merely to gather information about the processes, since these processes impact my use of Struts and my business decisions. Thanks.
