  Struts Classic 1.3.0 is a "bootstrap" distribution of the new Struts 
subprojects extracted from Struts 1.2.7: 
  
- * Apps 1.3.0
+  * Apps 1.3.0
- * Core 1.3.0

- * Tablibs 1.3.0

- * Tiles 1.3.0

  When a Struts Classic test-build passes the alpha vote,  the initial versions 
of each of these subprojects would be set at 1.3.0 (alpha).

  At some point, we would generate a Struts Classic 1.3.1 distribution 
(Classic131), which, for example, might contain: 
  
- * Apps 1.3.0

- * Core 1.3.1

  And so on. When all of the subprojects are marked GA, then the Struts Classic 
distribution can also be marked GA. On average, Apache products tend to go 
through a cycle of four to six releases before reaching GA status.

+ == How to Help ==
+ 
+ Everyone in the Struts community, users, developers, and committers, are 
encouraged to test a release, report any issues, and post to dev@ any comments 
on the overall quality of the release.
+ 
+ To help everyone get started with Struts Classic 1.3.0, here are the simplest 
installation instructions that can possibly work:
+ 
+  * Download the Struts 1.3.0 distribution from 
http://svn.apache.org/dist/struts/classic/v1.3.0/
+  ** Until 1.3.0 is available, download the nightly builds from 
http://svn.apache.org/builds/jakarta-struts/maven/
+  ** Or, check out the development source from Subversion 
(http://wiki.apache.org/struts/StrutsMaintenanceMaven)
+  * Extract subproject distribution to a likely location (\opt\struts-*)
+  * Install Java and set JAVA_HOME 
+  * Install Maven and set MAVEN_HOME
+  * Install the Cactus Plugins and Apache Tomcat 
+  ** http://wiki.apache.org/struts/StrutsMaintenanceMaven
+  * Change to the Struts Build folder (e.g., \opt\struts-build)
+  * $ maven
+  * Wait about five minutes for Maven to download and build everything
+  ** If you see any error messages, see if they are known issues by comparing 
your log with ours at 
http://svn.apache.org/builds/struts/maven/trunk/nightly/logs/
