AFAIK, right now, we are in a "evolutionary mode"; so, anything we are checking into the CVS should be, as far as the Committer knows, ready for prime time as soon as we check it in. If any "revolutionary code" is proposed, we should be sure to release what's already on board before making those types of changes to the HEAD.
If someone sees something going into the HEAD that looks dicey, then it should be addressed right away. Any of us can unilaterally veto a change on technical grounds before a release, but once the change is released, it becomes the new status quo. The ability for any of us to roll a majority-vote release is the check-and-balance for the unilateral product-change veto.
I was away last week (and getting ready to go away the week before), but I'll be trying to chip away at some of the patches on my list now. But if anyone is ready to be the RM and roll a 1.2 Release Candidate, that would be fine with me. During the last cycle, I continued to update the Roadmap page with more background on the release process, if anyone is looking for primers.
One thing that that we should remember to trumpet loudly is that we [meaning mostly David :)] have started to remove many of the longstanding deprecations. So, for example, any Struts 1.0.x Actions that use the old Action statics or the old perform method won't compile under Struts 1.2.0+ (when released).
While this may seem like a brief deprecation period to some people, things like this have been deprecated for several months, or even over a year, so the time is definitely nigh =:0)

So, has it been a whole 2 weeks now??? ;)
Isn't it about time we release a new version with the latest bug fixes?
Other than bug fixes and simple enhancements, are there any plans or have there been any definite decisions on what will go into Struts 1.1.1 or 1.2.0? At this point it seems rather open as to what goes into the next release(s).
