+    <p>
+       The Apache Struts team is pleased to announce the adoption of its latest
+       subproject, Struts Flow, a continuations-based approach to complex web 
+       workflows. Struts Flow orginated at the struts.sf.net project and has 
+       been formally adopted now as a Struts subproject. Struts Flow is a port 
+       of Apache Cocoon's Control Flow to Struts to allow complex workflow, 
+       like multi-form wizards, to be easily implemented using 
+       continuations-capable Javascript and eventually Java.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+       Today, Struts is comprised of nine subprojects: Core, Taglib, Tiles, 
El, 
+       Faces, Scripting, Applications, Shale, and (now) Flow. Struts Flow is 
+       different from Struts Scripting/BSF as where scripting brings any 
+       BSF-supported scripting language to Struts Actions, Struts Flow works 
on 
+       redefining the traditional Model 2 state-driven workflow into 
simplified 
+       scripots whos eexecute spans multiple requests. Currently, the Rhino 
+       engine, a Javascript implementation, is used to provide continuations 
+       support, but with the maturation of 
+       <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/sandbox/javaflow/";>
+       Commans Javaflow</a> - a Java-based continuations implementation, 
+       Java will soon be supported as well.
+    </p>

+    <h4 id="a20050123">23 Jan 2005 - New Struts subproject: Shale</h4>
+    <p>
+       The Apache Struts team is pleased to announce the adoption of its latest
+       subproject, Struts Shale, a JSF-based framework. The Shale codebase was
+       initiated by Craig McClanahan in the Struts sandbox, and development
+       traffic regarding Shale has steadily increased. As the product is 
heading
+       towards an initial release, the Struts PMC felt it time to formally 
adopt
+       Struts Shale as a subproject.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+       Today, Struts is comprised of eight subprojects: Core, Taglib, Tiles, 
El,
+       Faces, Scripting, Applications, and (now) Shale. An initiative is 
underway
+       to extract the Struts Tiles code into a standalone product. Several 
Struts
+       developers plan to apply to the ASF to incubate 
+       <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/struts/TilesTopLevel";> Tiles as a 
toplevel 
+       project</a>.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+       For more about the Struts Shale subproject, see the
