Perhaps I'm reading your reply wrong, but my proposal was to get rid of the
Struts calendar and editor tags, since they weren't providing much value.
Instead, we'd point users to this new OpenSymphony project if they wanted a
fully-featured calendar or editor tag.
Do you want to move the calendar and editor UI tags to Opensympyhony, keep the
Dojo ones here, or both?

Subject: Re: [s2] Dojo widgets?
To kind of answer my own question, I have a proposal: put the original
date picker and rich text editor UI tags in a new OpenSymphony project
titled something like "Struts Optional Components" or perhaps
something more original. Anyways, the point would be to create an
outside ASF project that:
1. Provides a home for excellent components that depend on LGPL
Javascript libraries, a no-no for ASF
2. Shows how easy it is to create your own components and perhaps
fosters a community, much like MyFaces Tomahawk
Even if we keep Dojo, I think we'd be doing our Webwork users a
disservice to try to get them to use these components instead. There
are just a lot of features the WW ones have that the Dojo ones don't.
Of course it doesn't hurt that the move would close a few of our
tickets and get us that much closer to a stable release :)

We have two UI tags, datePicker and richTextEditor, which used to be
backed by Javascript libraries, but are now simple wrappers for their
respective Dojo widgets. In the case of the date picker, I had to
extend the Dojo widget to have the correct popup behavior we had before.
My question is should I bother aligning the documentation, Javadocs, and
component classes to the new widgets and their attributes, or are we
dropping any components that simply wrap Dojo widgets?
I'd like to get this issue resolved so we can move on to the public beta
phase. Thanks,
Don
