Are there any comments on the included website docs?

Did you mean docs included with the distro, or docs on live website?
Just couple of notes on the live website:

Main Struts page [1] has top menu with "Apache | Action 1 | Action 2 |
Shale" links. This is ok.

Shale page [2] has no top menu.

Action 1 top menu has "The Apache Software Foundation | Apache Struts
| Apache | Action 1 | Action 2 | Shale" where 1st and 3rd point to the
same page, while Action 1 link is not needed. The header as well as
other sections reads "Welcome to Struts Action Framework" instead of
"Welcome to Struts Action 1 Framework" (I can only restate that
naming, which includes version numbers, sucks. Struts Classic was
better. What if WW remains Struts 2, but SAF1 will become Struts
Classic, and everyone will be happy?).

Struts Apps section has no links (should it?). Oh, just noticed the
"Apps" section in the left menu. I am not sure that I like that the
left menu can totally change depending on the subproject. I would
prefer it to stay full, and to open only item that relates to current
subproject. Currently, say, you get to Struts Cookbook. The left menu
contains:

"Project Documentation
   * About Struts Action - Apps - Cookbook
   * Project Info
   * Project Reports"

And that's it. How you got there? How to get to other parts of the
site if you got there from, say, Google search? There is no page
crumbs, and the top menu contains only one item: "Struts Action - Apps
- Cookbook", which points to the current page, thus, meaningless.

Overall, navigation on Struts site got very cumbersome. Anyway,
individual pages for "Apps" section has only one paragraph of
boilerplate text.

Struts Extras section has no links... Oh, I guess I got the pattern:
the related links appear _on top_ of "Components" section like "FAQs
and HOWTOs * Dispatching And Validating" for Extras. Well, and
sometime below it as well. This is very unintuitive.

Ah, tired :)
