Gratitude

Struts developers and other contributors,

I have been working several months on a project and was really getting
nowhere.  I had implemented my own MVC framework based on some usely
assorted ideas mostly from JavaWorld articles.  Then I found Struts
yesterday.  It blew me away.  I intuitively knew right away that it was the
right architecture and would save me tons of time by allowing me to avoid
that tedious JSP programming that was bogging me down.  I know letters like
this don't help anyone to learn more about Struts but I felt like I have to
say thanks.  This is one of the best and most well documented frameworks I
have ever seen.  I dreamt about Struts last night. :)  Maybee now I can get
back to 8 hour days and time to take a walk in the woods and watch the
beautiful spring come in (I am not exaggerating).

I will try to repay what I get from Struts by contributing to this list.  I
am a really fast learner of frameworks.  That is at least one of my skills.

P.S.  I am already about 75% to where I had been in several months with just
one day of Struts.  What does that say for Struts!

Welcome a "board", John. We are all gratefully happy that we have Struts and
its developers / contributors.
