I am using VelocityStruts v1.2 and would be happy to take the point on VelocityStruts v1.3. I don't see anything in Struts v1.3 that should compromise continued support - on the contrary it seems we will finally get the long awaited ViewContext in the next release - which should make our work a lot easier! So I would like a VelocityTools v1.3 release that supports Struts v1.3 - but I have no thoughts on the Struts Action 2.0 issue. > Idea #1 - between what > http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-commons/Logging/StaticLog talks about, > Tomcat's annoying dependence on commons-logging, and the many > improvements i've made to logging in Velocity 1.5, i am making the > transition from being a big advocate of using commons-logging in the > Velocity world to being rather opposed to it. i want to back > commons-logging use out of VelocityView and GenericTools as soon as we > are able to depend on Velocity 1.5. Interesting ... could you elaborate on that a little? Are you now more of an IoC man like Geir? Do you want further development of SimpleLog? > Question #2 - What do you think of these ideas?
