A few things I've noticed (not hugely important, but may raise some end user questions);
** Upgrade issues ** My project uses -codebehind-plugin, -core, -rest-plugin, -sitemesh-plugin. After the upgrading just the jars I get; Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.struts2.rest.handler.MultipartFormDataHandler from; struts2-rest-plugin-2.1.7.jar!/struts-plugin.xml:39:163 Does the rest plugin config file need updating to handle the new pluggable infrastructore for the Multipart Request handler (as mentioned in the release notes)? ** Out of date jars (newer versions may have bug fixes which would be useful) ** antlr-2.7.2 (latest in 2.x branch is 2.7.7, latest is 3.1.3) commons-collections-3.2 (latest is 3.2.1 which is just 3.2 repackage with OSGi meta data so may not be useful). commons-io-1.3.2 (There is a 1.4, but I'm not sure of API compatibility). commons-lang-2.3 (latest is 2.4, I've been using 2.4 with s2.1.6 without problems) commons-logging-1.0x (Latest is 1.1.1, I've been using 1.1.1 with s2.1.6 without problems) freemarker-2.3.13 (Latest is 2.3.15) ** Apparently unreleased jars (might need a note to explain where they've come from) ** sitemesh-2.4.2 (latest from sitmesh site is 2.4.1) Hope this is useful, Al. -- * Written an Android App? - List it at http://andappstore.com/ * ====== Funky Android Limited is registered in England & Wales with the company number 6741909.

Release notes: * [http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/WW/Version+Notes+2.1.7] Distribution: * [http://people.apache.org/builds/struts/2.1.7/] Maven 2 staging repository: * [http://people.apache.org/builds/struts/2.1.7/m2-staging-repository/] Once you have had a chance to review the test build, please respond with a vote on its quality: [ ] Leave at test build [ ] Alpha [ ] Beta [ ] General Availability (GA) Everyone who has tested the build is invited to vote. Votes by PMC members are considered binding. A vote passes if there are at least three binding +1s and more +1s than -1s. The vote will remain open for at least 72 hours, longer upon request. A vote can be amended at any time to upgrade or downgrade the quality of the release based on future experience. If an initial vote designates the build as "Beta", the release will be submitted for mirroring and announced to the user list. Once released as a public beta, subsequent quality votes on a build may be held on the user list. As always, the act of voting carries certain obligations. A binding vote not only states an opinion, but means that the voter is agreeing to help do the work In addition to the normal info above, I also want to add that I made the distro available for easy testing through the struts zone. If you point your browser here - http://struts.zones.apache.org/ You can test our reference apps on both tomcat and jetty.
