The good news is we're using Struts 2, rather than Struts 1. You may believe there's a better web framework, but most people do. In my experience, web frameworks are like religions. As for Spring vs. Java EE, you might want to read my blog post from a couple years ago. I believe it's still relevant.

I was able to successfully build the jboss war file from
the source. It runs on JBoss 6.1.0.Final with the Mysql
mysql-connector-java-5.1.16-bin.jar jdbc driver. Funny thing is that
when I create a datasource, it doesn't put the user-name and password
in the config file. I have to go open the RollerDS-ds.xml manually and
add those attributes. Maybe that is why jboss ditched that user interface?

I was able to create a blog. But, I can't upload an image to it. 
Do you have to enable something to upload an image to the blog
entry?

I think if you are going to reference the jboss war file in the
installation guide, that you ought to put it on the download site. I am
sure there will be +1 other interested users.

I am not too entheused about the Spring and Struts dependencies. I have
no knowledge of struts and it just doesn't seem to be the thing to
invest time into these days. As for dependency injection, I am sure
Spring was well suited at the time it was chosen. It just seems that
Java EE now provides what Spring did. But, I am not that seasoned of
a developer.

We never got *any* feedback at all on the Roller 5 release for JBoss, so we never made the JBoss release file available and the same goes for 5.0.1. If you want, you can build the JBoss release from the Roller source using the .sh script.
