Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Struts Wiki" for change 
notification.

The following page has been changed by TedHusted:
http://wiki.apache.org/struts/StrutsSubprojects

New page:
"How is a Struts subproject created?" 

There is no formal application process, but the best idea might be to submit a 
proposal, like the ones for  [http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/ Apache 
Incubator] projects, to the Struts PMC via the Struts Dev list.

Struts, like the ASF itself, does not consider itself a home for fledging 
codebases. There are other places, like Source``Forge, where new projects can 
be created and communities built. Once a product is maturing, and has a strong 
following, its developers may wish to apply to Struts to give the package a 
longterm home. Struts, like the ASF, is a place where we expect codebases to 
outlive the participation of their creators. 

"Most subprojects are related to Struts Classics. Others, like Shale, are not. 
Why is that?"

Bacause Struts isn't a product, it's a community. 

The question isn't whether codebases share a hierarchy. The question is whether 
codebases share a community of developers. 

The Struts PMC feels that Shale and Struts Classic share a common development 
community. So, the PMC decided to create a Struts Shale subproject.

And how did the Struts PMC get the right to make that decision? 

The old fashioned way: [http://apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html They 
earned it].
