I haven't contributed to Struts-EL, that's David Karr. I was pointing out that you should download a recent nightly to get the fixes you need. There's nothing terribly special about RC1 vs. the nightly that came the day after RC1 was released.

David,

     First, sorry for the miscommunication.  I put the word valuable in
quotes to emphasize it's usefulness, not sarcasm.  If I doubted it's
usefulness, I would have done something like this: valuable?
     I guess I should use asterisks next time.
     Personally, I'm under the impression that a "RC" release is more than
just a regular nightly build.  From the Jakarta News page:

      "The Struts Team believes that this release is ready for prime time,
hence its designation as a release candidate."

From the "Binaries" page:

"Nightly Builds are those that are very unstable (a.k.a. dynamite!). We
have no confidence in them. They are for developers who are helping to
develop the technology and want "the latest bits." Use at your own risk!"


Obviously, every product is the result of a nightly build (final or
not). I don't really want to get into a debate over "release" semantics.
I realize "Struts-EL" has only been released under the category of
"nightly". Since it's so tightly coupled with Struts, I just thought it
would be nice if there was a compatible version for RC1. I'm not saying it
has to be bug-free, but at least JSP code generation error free (i.e. the
JSP doesn't blow up during the code generation process -- as these are easy
to detect, almost impossible to workaround.). I'm just trying to help out.
Not trying to start any type of personal war.


Thanks again for all your contributions to Struts-EL,

JOHN

I don't understand. You say that David fixed the problem but you're still
unhappy? RC1 != 1.1 final. There will be bugs until the final version.
You say that using nightlies is risky but you're using RC1 (which is a
nightly)! Furthermore, Struts-EL is still in the contrib folder which gives


it a different status than the standard code base.

FYI, putting a word in quotes normally implies sarcasm.

David
