Roughly speaking, I would look at the current stability of each portion of Shale like this (using stability terms the way that NetBeans does): * ViewController - stable (will be small improvements in things like handling of application exceptions, but the APIs are solid). * Dialog Manager - evolving. Needs enhancements to support multiple active dialogs in the same page, but this *should* be doable without breaking existing apps [in my thinking for a 1.0 release] * Application Manager - evolving. The mechanism by which you customize global request processing (adding elements to a Commons Chain executed by a filter) is stable for 1.0 in a servlet environment, but will need an alternative implementation for portlets (likely post 1.0). * Validation - stable. * Remoting support - evolving. Works the way it is, but likely enhanced after 1.0. * Spring integration - stable. There's experiments going on right now to link JSF and Spring WebFlow, but that'll be offered to the Spring folks since it won't be Shale dependent ... and then Shale users will be able to get this support "for free". * Reusable Views (Clay) - Experimental, still rapidly evolving. * Test Framework - stable. There is also an integration with the standalone version of Tiles that is in the Struts sandbox. The Shale side of that is stable, but we need a standalone Tiles release to consider the entire thing stable.
