Since it seems that this was the orginial intent of the list (as per the website : http://www.basebeans.com:8081/mailman/listinfo/mvc-programmers) then shouldn't it be taken off the Jakarta page as a newsgroup for Struts? The users will (understandably) post their struts questions to this list, and those questions don't belong here.
