(What about Struts?)



At the moment, Struts uses hand-crafted XSLT stylesheets that preceeded the existence of Forrest (and Maven), but we are considering some alternatives based on both Forrest's and Maven's site generation facilities. Some proof-of-concept prototypes (not necessarily polished) of the Struts main page, using three different Forrest skins, are at:

Krysalis style:           http://www.twdata.org/dakine/site/
Avalon/Tigris style:      http://www.twdata.org/dakine/site1/
Forrest/XML Apache style: http://www.twdata.org/dakine/site2/

Personally, I would prefer either the Krysalis or Avalon/Tigris styles to the default Forrest/XML Apache style, but that's just me. Various Struts developers have various opinions, as well as concerns about the processing time implications of using Forrest.

We also use XSLT transformations for other reasons as well (i.e. generating tag library descriptors and reference documentation), and already enjoy nice things like print-friendly styles without the navigation menu -- to say nothing of XHTML-compatible generated output -- so I don't feel any great sense of urgency to make a migration. I'm personally not going to have time to even think about it in the very near term, due to day-job commitments. But, it's certainly an option for us to share a common look and feel.
