My understanding is that we would like to move the existing tags to a plugin, and create a standard bundle that would include the tag-plugin, the code-behind plugin, and the core as a single JAR. The code-behind plugin will subsume the zero-config and annotations code, as well as the SmartURls plugin. * [s2] Should tags be their own plugin? * [S2] Plugins gone wild! One place to document decisions like this is the STATUS.txt file under SVN. * http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/struts/current/STATUS.txt?view=markup In terms of the longer-term roadmap, work is being done on a JSP 2 taglib that won't use the templating system at all. Don's also been doing some preliminary refactoring in XWork so that the expression language can be made pluggable, meaning we would also be able to plugin something else instead of OGNL. -Ted. > > At a minimum, if we're going to keep the ftl template at all, then I > would recommend we bring in tabletags.
