JMX sounds great to me! +1 on adding it to be supported :-) Chain, workflow and so on will be integrated until into 2.0 (http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/status.html) and of course supporting jsr-168 i really think, it matures struts! :-) PS: did you read that link: http://www.theserverside.com/news/thread.tss?thread_id=22097 ? cheers, Matthias > > On Tue, 2004-03-16 at 07:29 -0500, Ted Husted wrote: > On Mon, 15 Mar 2004 13:07:10 -0800, Nadeem Bitar wrote: > > > > Which role will struts play when JSF matures and JSF 2.0 is released > > is what interests me more than the proposed name of struts 2.0. > > Struts will be whatever the community needs it to be. > > The Struts-JSF taglib Craig put together demonstrates that it's not an > either/or proposition. > > Even today, not every application needs to use Struts.
