Are the insiders the ones that coded Struts out the door or the ones that are bringing new code to the table? If you meant the ones that coded Struts out the door then if they refuse to do anything about lessons learned, I would not listen to them. I would listen to the outsiders who told them they were headed down a bad path. Do not think I think Don Brown does bad work. I think he is probably by far the most talented committer. He is almost as good as the outsiders. ;-)
