Maven migration (RE: 1.2.1 to which Maven repo?)

[Carlos Sanchez <ap...@carlos.cousas.net>]

Migrating from ant is the common problem, but once you try maven you forget
ant ;)

I'm very pleased to help, we can share maven experiences.

You're right src/share should be changed to src/java, conf to src/conf and
the examples should be moved to new maven projects. It's better if the
projects are not nested, say
/struts/struts (core struts)
/struts/examples
/struts/contrib/struts-el
/struts/contrib/other

Better than
/struts/struts (core struts)
/struts/struts/examples
/struts/struts/contrib/struts-el
/struts/struts/contrib/other
