+              Since Struts 1.2.8, we have subdivided Struts into several subprojects,
               each with its own release cycle.
               The set of seven subprojects derived from Struts 1.2 is sometimes referred to as "Struts Classic".
               The Struts Classic subprojects are Action, Applications, EL, Extras, Site, Taglibs, and Tiles.

+              The form-bean element in struts-config.xml now accepts
+              an <code>enhanced</code> attribute which, if set to
+              <code>true</code> for a form bean based on DynaActionForm
+              (or a sub-class), causes the form bean to be enhanced with
+              CGLIB to add getters and setters for each property, allowing
+              them to be accessed with the same JSTL EL syntax as for
+              normal form beans.
