Here's one crazy idea that might take you less time: go through the RIFE "simple blog" movie (slightly out of date, but still fairly accurate) and, once you have that application up and running and you understand how it works (which you will, by virtue of going through the movie), make a Struts version of it. Since you already know Struts that should be pretty simple.

Then you can work backwards and write up why thing X in Struts looks like Y in RIFE.

Trying to port an existing app to RIFE while learning RIFE is likely to be more frustrating than porting a known working RIFE app to a framework you're already expert in.

BTW, I recommend you initially go through the movie in one sitting, rather than stopping at each point and trying to translate each newly introduced concept in Struts terms. It will make a lot more sense once you have the big picture. RIFE, as you'll discover, is a *very* different beast than Struts or any other MVC framework with Struts-like conceptual models (Spring MVC, etc.)

I'd be happy to but my time is very limited so it might take a while.  I was
thinking I would try to find a demo struts app or something like that and
rebuild it using RIFE and document how it is done.

I expected it would be more than 3 pages.  Even if it is 20 pages it would
be very useful for Struts guys like me.
Thanks!
