I submitted a patch recently for the maven build. Sorry I didn't get a chance to (aka.. Just been lazy) attach it to a formal bugzilla report as Rob had suggested that I do. The maven test currently fail because the resources are not provided (look at my past post for reference). Unfortunately, even after including the source there are still test failures. I posted a sniplet of one of the errors before. I never bothered to find out if those test failures were due to the maven build or because of incorrectly written tests. Either way, I'll try to find some time to fix the maven build if anyone is interested.

I wonder if we could try a compromise? Could we have a Maven build that just downloaded the dependencies into the central repository, and a build.properties that got everything from there. This would save us from going back to a "struts-library" distribution. I also wonder if it be possible to wrap our existing Ant build as Maven goals? The user guide says that any Ant task can be used in the maven.xml. http://maven.apache.org/reference/user-guide.html#Sample%20maven.xml Another stepping-stone might be to provide Maven projects for the examples applications, especially the blank application. I'm thinking the cannonical approach here would be to have a master webapp-project.xml that we then extended for each application "artifact". http://maven.apache.org/reference/user-guide.html#POM%20Inheritance I'm working on a changelog system now but will come back to this later, if no one beats me to it.
