AFAIK, everyone on the PMC would like to see Action1 continue to grow
and evolve. Many of us still have Action1 applications in production,
and we might like to be able to do some work on them without migrating
to Action 2.x or Shale. Though, right now, it seems clear that most of
the committers plan to spend their volunteer hours working on Action2
or Shale.

Action1 doesn't need to be considered a separate framework. We did
that with Shale because the migration to JSF is jarring. But, the
migration to Action2 is a much smoother transition. It is a
transition, just as moving from Maven1 to Maven2 is a transition, but
the learning curve is gentle, and even "refreshing". To me, it's clear
that Action2 is a more highly evolved form of Action1.

If there's an Action1 community willing to do the work, what we need
to see is people doing the same thing for Action1 that CrazyBob
started for Action2. If people are interested in moving forward, let's
see the "rough spots" wiki page for Action1. Then, let's see the
patches to make it happen.
