There is no real history or bad blood that I'm aware of. Tim Fennell (who is
probably reading this thread or will eventually) had just had enough of
Struts 1 and so he started working on Stripes. As for copying of code, the
only instance of that that I'm aware of in Struts 2 is Stripes' ResolverUtil
class. It is credited to Tim and Stripes in the Struts 2 Javadocs.
http://struts.apache.org/2.0.9/struts2-core/apidocs/com/opensymphony/xwork2/util/ResolverUtil.html
As far as I know, any ill feelings expressed toward Struts are generally
more toward the Struts 1 code itself and all the heartache we developers
have endured because of it rather than the project or the people who run it.
