Ahh your query is a lot more impressive than mine ;)

and this bug:

http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28150

took 11 hours to get applied from being submitted!

When  Struts 1 beta was released the servlet spec was 2.2. Since then (about
3 years I think) Servlet 2.3, Servlet 2.4 the JSTL and Java Server Faces
have all come along - in the next few years who knows what the best
technology will be to deploy - but it won't be the same as today (even if
its still Struts) and your going to have to continually re-invest in the new
stuff that comes along - all you can do today is decided whats the best
solution now.
 

Yes this is certainly true. But I felt we were at an apex right now, 
between Old/New... JSF being the new golden child that I haven't really 
seen anyone use yet so we could figure out if it really was going to be 
"all that"... I was just curious. Thank you for the feedback.

Subject: Struts Development seems slow, info?

 

Hey guys,
I've been looking at this for a while as an indicator of a 1.2 release:
   

http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_severity=Blocker&bug_severity=Critical&bug_severity=Major&bug_severity=Normal&bug_severity=Minor&email1=&emailtype1=substring&emailassigned_to1=1&email2=&emailtype2=substring&emailreporter2=1&bugidtype=include&bug_id=&changedin=&votes=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&product=Struts&short_desc=&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&long_desc=&long_desc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_file_loc=&bug_file_loc_type=allwordssubstr&keywords=&keywords_type=anywords&field0-0-0=noop&type0-0-0=noop&value0-0-0=&cmdtype=doit&order=bugs.bug_id
 

and MOST of these bugs actually have solutions attached to them, but I
noticed that (a) they don't seem to be getting closed out for months at
a time and (b) I see the same developer name(s) over and over again on
these bugs and (c) the communication over the bugs are not very verbal
at all (slow)....
And I know that all projects work differently, so I was wondering if
anyone knew or heard (maybe even from the dev list) if there is waining
interest in Struts and the devs are working on other things, or if the
devs have always been this bad about communication?
Not to say that JSF is the future (I have no idea what will be) but if
Struts development support is slowing down and people are starting to
look else where, I'd just like to know for future-time-investment sake.
Thanks!
Riyad
