Nothing was "shot down", Frank. I believe many of us feel the idea has significant merit. I'd like to see it happen, but I'm frying other fish right now, and I don't have any more hours to volunteer. I'd venture that the other Struts Committers are in the same boat. People work on what they want to work on. If you want to work on a Ajax revolution, you can do that on SourceForge and talk about it on the Struts Dev list, if you like. If the codebase is developed, and attracts a community, then it could be proposed as as subproject, or a new HTML taglibs head, or whatever else might be appropriate under the circumstances. * For more, see the Rules for Revolutionaries -- http://incubator.apache.org/learn/rules-for-revolutionaries.html Tiles, Validator, Nested, EL, declarative security, Flow, Shale, Scripting, all started this way. People did the work, and *then* we brought the component into the project. Another way to say this is that we start by "thinking grey". We decide not to decide. When there's code on the table, and community around the code, then, we'd be able to decide. -Ted. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
