If you search the archives, you can find quite a few interesting comments about the 1.2 branch and its future. Here's just one thread:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.jakarta.struts.devel/25785/match=1+2+branch+dead

(first one that came up from my search, just happened to be mine :) )

The new ParameterDispatchAction (or whatever the name is) got added in 1.2.9, correct? If so, based on previous statements, I'm actually surprised it made it in. Surprised in a positive way, but surprised none the less.

So is this the end of line for the 1.2 branch? One thing
that I admire the Spring Framework team for is their desire
and willingness to backport *minor* enhancements from the upcoming 2.0 release into the 1.2 branch. Because I find
their level of support admirable, I wonder how many commiters
here would be committed (no pun intended!) to follow a similar
path by applying minor 1.3 enhancements back into 1.2? Who knows,
maybe we will have a Struts 1.2.12 one day if this is wanted.

One thing which I found inspiring in Ted's emails (see the
user list) is the willingness not to evolve without being a revolutionary.
I think 1.3 will be a great product (let's hope it goes GA
soon but only after 1.2.9), and I would like the minor things
to move backwards as well.

Is anyone else interested in such an idea?
