I do not know, how things are on the other side of the drink (USA) but here
in Europe more and more companies do go for open-source. (In 2002 I have
seen one project on Weblogic [with Struts] and a multiple of them on JBoss.)
The only place, where OSS is behind are databases. IMHO.
I believe over here JBoss is used widely as a development environment
since it is so easy to use, but it isn't being 'allowed' to be put into
production. Shame, but true.
Plus, companies are installing Linux like crazy all over the place. :)
Does Struts have any commercial alternative?
The only one I am aware of is JLink. I saw an article some time ago in
JavaDevelopers Journal on it, but that is all I know of. I believe
Oracle has a custom MVC impl, but I don't think there are nearly as many
as in OSS. You got Struts, Turbine, WebMacro, Velocity, and on and on...
Many big names use a lot of OSS. (IBM, Oracle, Sun)

That is true. After all they both donate and use a lot of Apache/Jakarta
stuff. I believe they use Jasper and I know they rebrand Apache web server.

I read everyone's responses to Gene Campbell's question and I think
there should be a place on the Struts website (maybe a wiki or
something?) where all of these good folks who responded to him could
put up their "Why I love Struts" comments. I know I have to answer
this question often to clients and other developers and it would be
nice to say "Go to the struts website and look at page 'Why I love
it'" or whatever.
Promoting Struts is often difficult since it is open source and there
is that fear amongst the management (generally) about open source
stuff. Never mind that there are 5 (6?) books on struts alone, it has
one of the largest followings in open source Java, is in production
is some major companies, etc. The one thing I usually say to a
manager type is "IBM uses it for the admin on WebSphere". Throwing in
that big name usually helps...
