== How to Help ==

Everyone in the Struts community, users, developers, and committers, is encouraged to test a release, report any issues, and post to dev@ any comments on the overall quality of the release.

To help everyone get started with Struts Action 1.3.2 (when it is available), here are the simplest installation instructions that can possibly work:

 * Download the Struts 1.3.2 distribution from http://svn.apache.org/dist/struts/action/v1.3.2/ (when it is available)
 * Extract the distribution to a likely location (\opt\struts-action-1.3.2)
 * Install Java and set JAVA_HOME 
 * Install Maven 2 and set MAVEN_HOME
 * Install Apache Tomcat 
 * * http://wiki.apache.org/struts/StrutsMaintenanceMaven
 * Change to the new folder (e.g., \opt\struts-action-1.3.2)
 * $ mvn
 * Wait about five minutes for Maven to download and build everything
 ** If you see any error messages, see if they are known issues by comparing your log with ours at http://svn.apache.org/builds/struts/maven/trunk/nightly/logs/

The Commons [http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/releases/prepare.html Preparation Guide] is a helpful preparation backgrounder, but Commons
uses the "beta/release-candidate/final" process.

Likewise, the [http://httpd.apache.org/dev/release.html HTTPD Release Guidelines] is a helpful "overall process" backgrounder,
but HTTPD does not use a test-build stage.
