Modularise it and put it out on SourceForge quickly! Make sure that your
email address registered at SourceForge is not your company email!
(Otherwise you might end up like Mark Galbreath!) Then just use it like
any other open-source component.

[SNIP] This is the reason
actually that I'm going to start learning .NET stuff. I think what you
are proposing seems very exciting and I look forward to keeping tabs on
the progress, however I have this feeling (probably unfounded) that
companies are going to feel overwhelmed with the choices out there and
simply say "Screw it, I'll just go with an MS solution."
That's exactly why I suggested that Struts should 'shrink' - at least
struts-core should shrink. At the risk of boring the list, I'll just cut
and paste what I wrote (it disappeared without a reply earlier):
In my humble opinion the struts community has not grasped an opportunity
which would see it compete against .NET and other java frameworks.
Struts should shrink.
I'm thinking of Maven. The most contentious yet inspired point about
Maven is that you just have to follow the 'Maven way' or you won't gain
any advantage over Ant. Yet if you do make that paradigm shift and do
your project the Maven way, the benefits are massive.
Struts should offer a best-of approach, and offer a whole set of
documentation that steers the web developer down that path.
Such a focus during future struts development would allow many
compromises to be thrown out in favour of the more efficient but
limiting choices, which would translate into shorter turn-around times
for struts web-app developers who went along with it.
So Rick, I agree with your opinion, but not with your consequent actions
(learning .NET) and Michael, I disagree here - choice is not good! Well
not for newbies.
