Hmmm, there won't be three, only two. Ti is a codename for a Struts Action 2.x candidate. If code pans out, and we accept the proposal, Ti will disappear and become Struts Action 2.x. There will be a 1.x Action framework and a 2.x Action framework, but that often happens in our industry. We have two because JSF is fundamentally incompatible with action-orientated frameworks. (As stated on the Struts home page.) But, that will not be the case for Ti. We plan to create a clear and relatively painless migration path, so that investments in skill sets and working code will be retained. (Including our own.) People like to say WebWork is a different framework, but really it isn't. Struts and WebWork are already close cousins. Rather than clone WebWork, Patrick and Jason have been kind enough to join with us, so that we can collaborate rather than compete. > Which one should I be learning/using? That's up to you, dude. Unlike commercial companies with stockholders to please, we're not trying to do your thinking for you. We're just trying to build the frameworks that we want to use in our own applications. If other people want to use them too, that's great. If they want to help build them, even better. But, we're not on a mission of world domination. We're just trying to create and maintain our own applications, just like you. -Ted. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
