Not exactly sure what you're referring to here, but am guessing you mean would there be an offer for integrators/embedders to become committers? I personally think this makes sense for cases like Expresso.
My point was to show my support for Ted's proposal (of sorts) that projects like stxx and sslext become sub projects of the top-level Struts project. -James http://www.jamesholmes.com/struts/ -----Original Message----- From: Peter A.

Having spent some type integrating 1.1 into Expresso Framework in 2002, in our case can we be classified as Struts extenders? Also some repository will not want to become a sub project of Struts because of logical sense, politics or legal entity status? > ------------------------------------------------------------- > Here's something else to mull over: > > Now that Struts is a TLP, we might want to talk about whether we want to ask > the most popular open source Struts extensions -- like Struts Menu, > Workflow, Stxx, SSL, and TestCase -- whether they would like to donate their > code to the ASF and live as Struts "opt" subprojects.
