This is just plain wrong. There is more Struts 1.x development going on now than ever before. Some people wanted to work on Shale as well as Struts 1.x, so we opened a subproject. No big woof. What people either fail or refuse to recognize is that the ASF is an *non-profit* organization. We can't "market" anything. We provide services to the community for the greater good. It's not about competition, and it's not about marketing. It's about community service. It's about volunteers contributing to the project. People are volunteering to work on Struts 1.x, and people are also volunteering to work on Shale 1.x. So that's what we are doing: Struts 1.x and Shale 1.x. Again, no big woof. One developer's confusion is another developer's choice. Choice is good. -Ted. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
