Do you mean my email makes you nervous? The dev@struts.apache.org is a public list for the discussion of the development of struts, and this thread is titled "If I had a 1000 hours to give..." with the implication the subject is future directions. Why do you have a nervous reaction to my desire for the kind of taglibrary I described?

Perhaps you should read through a few of the threads from this list on a mailing list archive site to allay whatever anxieties you have. I can assure you that my comments are not going to provoke the immediate launch of Struts 3 with a whole new set of dependencies that might make your struts-based code base redundant, assuming that this is what you are nervous about - perhaps you could clarify your point?

First off I was under the impression that the jstl was already supported
through means of the StrutsRequestWrapper, correct ?

Second, I always thought of the custom tags and ognl as a core part of the
framework and also it's core strength. Seeing people on this list discus
removing it  makes me ...  somewhat nervous. Why would be the reasons to do
this. Everything from formatting, typeconversion to databinding uses ognl
under the hood and provides a lot of flexibility

It's a dependency, not a requirement, to be precise although I guess you

that. To create a stripped-down struts, I'd ditch OGNL and do the
conversion and
formatting with some other way. Bear in mind, OGNL is used all over for
other
stuff too, but I did say I'd also ditch that.

No it doesn't, but then neither does the Struts tags if "no OGNL"  :)

+1

in fact, i'd write a new taglibrary with just lightweight support
for
form
properties, conversion, and formatting. No HTML, no Ajax, no OGNL,
no
value stack.

Then I'd do a session of performance testing to see what the
improvement
was
(did somebody else suggest that?).
