I would LOVE for that to happen, but knowing my work environment it would never happen. Frankly, my company isn't that forward-thinking. They haven't really embraced open-source anyway like I would like then to, so they wouldn't see any incentive to support such an idea.

I tend to get a fair amount of down time between major projects though, and I do what I can at those times since I can more or less do whatever I want (that app was put together in just such a period actually), but at the moment I'm pretty much balls-to-the-wall and it looks like I will be for a few months.

I did snag a copy of your application and will get to it eventually.

I haven't looked at that Ted.  If I'm being honest I have to admit
that I've never looked at the sample apps at all, so I don't even
know what's there and what isn't.  I'm pretty tied up at the moment
with work (how DARE they ask me to do stuff JUST because they PAY
me!), so I don't forsee being able to even think about doing it.

There's a download module in the struts-examples application.
Originally, these were separate applications demonstrating
validation, download, and so forth, but we merged them early in
the 1.2 series. (Mainly so we had a modules application against
which to test changes.) It seems like it would be a simple matter
to extend the existing module to include demonstrations of the
DownloadAction.

Have you looked at doing that, Frank? (I'd give it a shot, but
I'm working on the MailReader-Chain application now.)

As part of the 1.3.x series, I believe both the Examples
application and the original MailReader application are slated to
be moved into an "Apps" subproject, so that they are not part of
the core release. I also wouldn't mind merging Steve Reaburn's
Examples application <http://www.ninsky.com/struts/> with the few
we already have.

A serious problem I have when applying patches is that we have
too few unit tests and even fewer coding examples of our own.

It's of course not my decision to include the sample or not.  I
put it together, but I'm not going to go nuts trying to promote
or support it because ultimately it's not exactly a big
accomplishment or anything. It serves it's purpose in
demonstrating the use of DownloadAction, but it's not rocket
science or anything.

It's probably fine as-is, and I don't plan on putting any
effort into it unless specifically asked, and that includes
getting it up on the Struts Applications project.
