I've talked to Eric over IM and it's really a matter of bandwidth. In his location, he doesn't have the high-speed connection that most of us have grown accustomed to. The mailing lists (struts-user in particular) is actually sort of fast-paced. If you're sharing a small amount of bandwidth, checking extranet email is something you do infrequently if at all. If you're not checking regularly, many threads come to life and hit closure before you have a chance to contribute. I didn't mean to imply anything by it, it was just my way of indicating that even though some may not recognize his name from the lists, he is actively working on some impressive jquery integration. -Wes -- Wes Wannemacher Author - Struts 2 In Practice Includes coverage of Struts 2.1, Spring, JPA, JQuery, Sitemesh and more http://www.manning.com/wannemacher --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@struts.apache.org
