I certainly won't quibble over the name... I can't believe I'm saying it now, but I'd prefer Struts Classic :) Not a big deal though, I can certainly live with Action1, your justifications do make sense.
So, I guess the question is, does anyone else think this is a good idea? Can we get enough buy-in from people to make it happen? I'm not really sure what I could do to help make it happen, but since I brought it up, I'll do whatever I can. Frank -- Frank W.
