Ok, here is a final summary of potential new WW features for the next release. I have indicated who mentioned each feature so we can go back to them for more information if needed.
Have I left any features out? Should any feature be removed? What do you believe are a *must* for the next release? Do you have any feature(s) you would like to work on or take ownership of? If you have any revisions or comments, please reply. I will commit this summary as TODO.txt to the root of CVS. -Matt - Documentation 1. Better velocity documentation. [suggested by Matt] 2. A more detailed section describing the view mapping focusing on using actions.xml and views.properties with an example containing all the goodies (commands, aliases, hierarchical aspects etc.) and describing the main differences between them. [suggested by Paolo] 3. A detailed description on the single items and configuration of the webwork.properties should be done (based on the default.properties) [suggested by Paolo] 4. Client Action documentation [suggested by Mike] 5. Splitting documentation into a RedBook and a reference. [suggested by Peter] - Core 6. Ability to chain actions [suggested by Pat] 7. XSLT should be enhanced slightly to be really useful. We need some XSLT java extension for URL-escaping and so on. [suggested by Billy] 8. Ability to receive multi-part content - AttachmentAware? [suggested by Mike] 9. Ability to reuse the same action - i.e. I've also got a SessionActionFactory that I built a while back that will reuse the same action by saving it and pulling it from the session, which makes things like multi-page forms easy, because you don't have to keep passing the data along as hidden fields, etc. [suggested by Jason] 10.
