S2 and tiles2 status

I've been partially paying attention to this list for several months 
while I was mostly working with Ruby-on-Rails.  I finally have some time 
to try and come up to speed on S2.  I will obviously need some sort of 
view/template solution, and I'm leaning towards JSP + tiles2.  (But I'm 
willing to be persuaded that there is something better.)

I found the tiles2 plugin page at 
http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/tiles-plugin.html.

Can someone explain the statement "The Tiles Plugin is experimental (it 
depends on the Apache Tiles beta)."

What is Apache Tiles beta?  Is the Plugin simply an interface between S2 
and Apache Tiles?  I didn't see a web page for Apache Tiles...is there one?

I appreciate any guidance here!

What a mess! :-) I wonder when Struts 2 (and Shale) will use Tiles 2.0.3...
And anyway:
- The Tiles homepage is http://tiles.apache.org/
- It did not reach a beta, but only an alpha release
- the <t:put-attribute> is better written as <tiles:putAttribute>

The version of Tiles 2 shipped with Struts 2.0.6 is an early snapshot.  The
Strut2 plugin for Tiles 2 only works with this version.  It will not work
with the latest Tiles 2 release, 2.0.3.

I'm using the Struts 2.0.6 version of Tiles2 without any issues so far.
Just be careful with your definitions XML file.  The new JSP tags are used
in this version, e.g., <t:put-attribute>.  However, the Tiles DTD is the old
one, e.g., it uses <put> instead of <put-attribute>.
