Re: Proposal for Validation Framework

The framework has been used in production applications, and has proven
useful. It is already under the ASL, and in a Jakarta CVS, so it's just
a matter of moving the package over, as was done with BeanUtils,
Collections, and the Digester.
David has been an active Struts committer for some time, and so
breveting him as a Commons committer is easy enough.

Re: Validation Framework [VOTE] (was Re: Proposal for
ValidationFramework)
Posted by Ted Husted <hu...@apache.org>.
It's been in the Struts contrib folder and under Apache CVS for some
time, and can be checked out there or at David's site.
We almost kept it for Struts 1.1, but since it is not Struts specific,
it was decided to bring it up here instead.
The same thing is happening with Cedric's Tiles library. It can be used
with Struts, but also plays well with others, so we are proposing that
to Taglibs.

How about throwing it into the sandbox first?
Then people can look at it, play with it, and any evolution that¹s necessary
before becoming a project can happen?
(Is it struts specific?)
