The problem is that none of us have several hours a week to devote to Struts 
development right now. On a regular basis, I can schedule two hours a week, but, with 
everything else on my plate, that's all I can afford. :(

If I see someone who's been with us for a while, and is taking an interest in DEV 
issues, then they get nominated fairly quickly. Niall was our most recent vic^G^G^G 
volunteer. :) But qualified candidates are few and far between.

Something people have been telling us very loudly and very clearly on this list is 
that Struts is too difficult to build. The professional developers who can help us 
most aretoo busy to learn the idiosyncrasies of our build process.Toward that end, 
there is now a simplified build.properties template (build.properties.sample.lib) 
which busy people might find easier to use.

I believe completing the work on our Maven build will also help, since more and more 
professional teams are using Maven now. But to do Maven right, we need to standardize 
the build tree, which is on the agenda for 1.3.x.

So, the best way to move this process along is to play test the 1.2.1 release hard 
against your own apps, and tell us what you find. The sooner 1.2.x is stable, the 
sooner we can move on (as Martin said) "to bigger and better things".
