The WebWork team has successfully completed WebWork 2.2.2, which was
immediately imported into the WebWork 2 Incubator podling. Here is the
current status:
- The code is at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/webwork2
- All but Toby have Apache accounts and karma (Toby has sent in his CLA
so we are awaiting its confirmation)
- A Struts JIRA instance is in the process of being created. It will
initially be populated with existing WebWork tickets, however in time,
the existing Struts Bugzilla tickets will be migrated as well.
- You can follow the current Incubator status at
http://incubator.apache.org/projects/webwork2
- New Action 2 modules (legacy and apps) will be developed in the
sandbox under 'action2'
- The WebWork 2 documentation and site will remain up and active until
we can identify an Apache resource (hopefully a new Confluence instance)
for migration
At this point, I encourage everyone to jump in and start transforming
WebWork 2 to Action 2. From a code perspective, we'll need to
accomplish the following tasks:
- Move the package and project identifiers to Action 2
(org.apache.struts.action2)
- Identify dependencies that use incompatible licenses and either:
1. Convince the project to dual license or switch to a BSD-compatible
2. Replace the dependency with one that has a more favorable license
3. Write out the dependency
- Continue to develop the code
If you are a Struts committer and do not have karma, let me know and
I'll add you to the proposal and request webwork karma for you. If you
are a WebWork committer who is not on the proposal, I'm looking into the
process of how to add more external developers. In the meantime, I
suggest you either feed the patch through an existing committer, or file
a bug ticket once our JIRA gets stood up.
Congratulations to the WebWork team for a successful release and here's
to a successful migration and Action 2 project!
Don
