Annotations was originally setup as a separate JAR with an independent version so as to encourage reuse. However, until other product indicate an interest in using Annotaitons and participating in its development, managing a separate release process provides no tangible benefit. Therefore, it's proposed that annotations become a part of the general Struts 2 distribution, along with the various plugins, but remain in its own JAR, so as to encourage reuse. If an independent community forms around Annotations, we can revisit the issue of making it a subproject with its own release cycle.
Archetype was original setup as a separate entity, but it might be simpler to reduce the number of independent artifacts being released by the project. The S2 Release Manager will have to update the version number in the templates, but that seems like less work that coordinating tandem releases, that might end up being handled by the same volunteer anyway. Again, this is as to the trunk. For now, we can let the 2.0 branch stay as it is.
