I never thought of it that way.. but I believe it to be true...

I think that they change so that it will break previous instalation.

I have recently begun the learning curve from Struts 1 to Struts 2, and
since WebWork in Action is really the only game in town, it's definitely
worth the read.  There is a lot of package and library conversions that you
have to do to get the examples working on Struts 2, and some of the concepts
have advanced since the book was written, but the information is still
relevant, and at this point, I would add it to the suggested reading list of
anyone starting up the Struts 2 Learning Curve.
  (*Chris*)

P.S.  Any chance of Struts 2 in Action (i.e. WWiA v2) any time soon?  Seems
like the time is ripe.

I agree with Ted. I read the book before jumping into S2.

A former coworker once accused open source developers of changing
stuff not so that it would work better, but simply so they could sell
more books!

We're all sadistic after all. At Tiles 2 we changed DTDs and tag
libraries completely, not to mention the APIs. It's a real sadistic
pleasure seeing developers in difficulties when trying to upgrade :-)

By th eway he describes the whole thing, I think he meant it literaly, even
though he should have used the adjective instead (sadistic). It is indeed
very funny!

Oops... honestly, I had to polish up my original text... it was much more
harsh.
I had sent it off to fellow developers but decided to post it.
I missed one !
But a good laugh is always good ;)
