Migration Path

Hello,
Since it seems pretty much settled that SAF2 == WW2 with
different package names. I'm ready to get my head wet now with WW.
I know the transition will be easier if I wait ... yadda yadda.
I was told that one could actually start using WW  inside
my existing struts projects and incrementally change things as needed.
Is that  true?
Thanks,
Vinny

Our goal is to have some sort of Action 2 release by JavaOne, a couple
weeks away.  It might not be GA quality, but it should be at least
beta for early adopters to test and start using.  I'm aiming for a GA
release by August.

Correctly, WW and Struts Action 1 should work fine side-by-side, and
in fact, so should Struts Action 2.  If you find any issues, please
file a ticket so they can be resolved quickly.

This is still a few months down the line, no?
If I use  WW Actions in my struts 1.29  webapps and keep the
the respective Views in their own corners, I shouldn't have to worry
about a "Clash of Controllers" , right?

Yes, if you pick up WebWork 2 today, you will be much better prepared
for Struts Action 2 in the future.  Currently, we are working on
getting a release out that is pretty much a renamed WebWork 2 with a
few minor improvements, but if you are on the dev list, you'll see
there is a lot more discussion on more radical changes possibly after
that.

The bottom line is it is a primary goal of Struts Action 2 to have an
easy migration path from Struts Action 1 and WebWork 2, so no matter
how Struts Action 2 changes in the future, we plan to minimize, if not
eliminate, the amount of changes you'll have to make to your
application.
