Can you please post a "what's new" about this release to help me make my boss agree to use Struts 1.2.0 for new projects ?
Are committers familiar with the Maven changes.xml file/plugin? If it exists, it can be used to generate something that looks like this:
http://maven.apache.org/changes-report.html
Even though Maven isn't our primary build mechanism, using changes.xml might be a good way to track what we're doing. I hope I'm not embarassing myself, but there isn't any basic change log already is there? If so, I sure haven't been tracking it.
I guess putting every single commit into the changes.xml file isn't appropriate, or the thing would get huge. Also, Maven can generate a separate report for that (http://maven.apache.org/changelog-report.html)
Since changes.xml is structured, we could probably come up with a transform to use it in the current Ant-built documentation until we are using Maven, and if nothing else, it provides a single place to log things.
Of course, if people don't think it's worth the energy, I'd rather leave it out than have it there but inaccurate.

PS an example of the XML syntax is here: http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/changes/ It's about as much doc as I've ever seen for it.
