Yes, considering refactoring for an IOC container is on the RoadMap for 1.4.
* http://struts.apache.org/roadmap.html Both Don and I have had excellent luck refactoring for Spring, as has Matt Raible. It's Craig's first preference for Shale, and I believe the BeeHive crew is using it. Seems the obvious choice. :) The very cool part is that, if you are careful, you can keep the IOC container decoupled from the application, making it possible to plug a different one in. -Ted.
