Well, to put it another way, if I were assigned the task of evaluating different things in this space, and Struts was one of them, it is very unlikely that I would settle on it. I would almost certainly end up opting for a non-schizophrenic alternative.

I don't know how other people see things. This is just my honest reaction. I have no vested interest in this.



I think it is fair to say that some people see no problem, others see a potentially big problem. Aside from that, I'm not sure any conclusion can be drawn :)


Sorry, in the part below I was speed-reading and thought you said that no conclusion could be drawn about the previous commit privileges issue. I take back what I say below. Whether the Action/Shale cohabitation is a good idea or not is hard to verify empirically, so I agree with your comment above.

Well, that's not true, Frank. A conclusion can be drawn since it's an empirically resolvable question. You can replicate (roughly) the same experiment enough times to draw a pretty definitive conclusion. I don't say my own experience is enough to be definitive. But so far, my experience suggests that the fears you express about letting people commit code are not very well founded. In particular, the malice issue is pretty much an ersatz problem, I think. Also, that people start committing oodles of low quality code all of a sudden doesn't seem to happen either.
