You should be able to use just about any validation framework with
Maverick.  Take a look at the code for the various controller base
classes that come with Maverick - there's no black magic.  

Here are a couple tools that might be useful to you (there are probably
many more):

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/validator/


About Maverick's user community:  We're quite small compared to Struts,
but we're active and growing.  Sourceforge tracks download statistics:

Maverick is not at risk of abandonment; this is one of the core tools I
use to do my job.  That said, it's worth noting that Maverick is a
pretty mature product at this point - it's gone through two fairly major
rewrites and it has a fairly limited scope (by design).  I don't want to
imply that the project is "done", but our philosophical goal is to keep
it simple rather than to keep piling on features.
