I agree that at this point pulling the Validator and Tiles from the core distribution would be more trouble than keeping them in, but it's important to note that both components have been around since the Struts 0.5 era, and I was using them in production with a late beta of Struts 1.0 years

Eddie, Can you take a look at http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12309 It relates to tiles and 1.1. I'd like to get your thoughts on it. Sorry, this didn't really answer your question. Dave From: Eddie Bush [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Struts Developers List [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yes, I've seen that bug. I'll take a look at it. Does anyone have a valid reason why this shouldn't be done? David Graham wrote: Eddie, Can you take a look at http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12309 It relates to tiles and 1.1. I'd like to get your thoughts on it.
