First off, calling this "modules" would be very confusing, since Struts 1
already has a concept of modules that is not at all related to what you are
looking to create. Since the purpose is integration with other libraries, I
would suggest "integration".

Second, I would strongly recommend against creating one all-encompassing jar
file. The problem with that approach is that almost every user will be
carrying around baggage that they don't want or need. If we provide
integration with a half dozen other libraries, the chances are that any
given developer will need at most one of them. That leaves 5/6 of the jar as
baggage.

I like Wendy's suggestion - start with one struts-spring jar and see how
that works out.
