Sharing code between versions (was [jira] Created: (STR-2898) Rename Struts Action 1 to Struts 1)

[Don Brown]

Good question.  Here are the options of the top of my head:
 - Jakarta Commons project
 - Put it in Struts 1.x, since Struts 2 will probably have 1 has a dep for 
migration code
 - Create new Struts Commons
 - Just have two copies of the code

To be honest, I lean towards the last option, unless the code is large enough to 
warrant the first.  For example, Struts 1 has WildcardHelper, but so does XWork 
2.0 (used by Struts 2) and it all came from Cocoon.  Cocoon recently rewrote the 
class, so I'll need to bring over the changes into those two new projects. 
Sure, that is a bit of work, but not in comparison to starting a new project 
just for that class.

A thought occured to me today. If we ever want to share code between struts 1 
and struts 2c (ie: locale resolution), having the org.apache.struts package 
structure being the neutral place makes sense, with action (1.x) and action2 
(2.x) being specific implementations.

Well, not that the renaming is done, I think we have no normal way of sharing code across packages. Thoughts?

If we are using "struts1" and "struts2" for the repository folders
(which is fine with me), why are we using "1.x" and "2.0" for the
website folders?

* http://struts.apache.org/1.x/
* http://struts.apache.org/2.0/

In the view of "convention over configuration", I feel we we should
work toward using a consistent set of conventions across tools. If
there is not a technical reason why we need to use symbols, I'd like
to use "struts1" and "struts2" for the website folders.
