Thank you very much! I have no experience with Spring MVC and JSF so far. So unfortunately I do not know about it's major release migrations. I also have no idea why it is in more usage :/
Absolutely, I did not mean you yourself should do or did something :) I just asked these to know if me/we, contributors, should just wait for user's demands in jira. or no, it's needed to analysis, study and discus competitors here, for new applicable (not all) features or improvements in Struts (e.g. you informed me that JSON and Angular are reasons so I can study them if any applicable feature could be added to S2). Sincerely Yours, Yasser.
