[NOTE] Unresponsive responses

[Ted Husted <hu...@apache.org>]

I'd be grateful if we could keep the non-responsive posts on the list to
a minimum. 

If someone posts an incomplete question, or one that can be answered
through the archives or one of the FAQs, please feel free to reply back
with one or more of these URLs.

and let them work out the rest on their own. 

Otherwise, the best response may be no response at all. 

This is a high-volume list with well over a thousand subscribers.
If a post takes even a second for us all to process, that's another 15
minutes out of our collective day. 

If anyone does have time to spare, additions to any of the FAQs and
other documentation are always welcome. These may be posted to 
bugzilla in XML.

Maybe a struts-newbie mailing list would be a good idea? I've seen such 
newbie mailing lists work for other topics. Kicking it off requires a 
bit of input from experts but once a generation of newbies has become 
non-newbies, they hang around on the list for a while answering real 
newbies until they got bored and then they're replaced by other 
graduating newbies.

Just an idea, if resources are available.

going with 1.1b - what good reasons?

[Adam Hardy <ad...@cyberspaceroad.com>]

Hi All,
I would like to persuade my manager when I see him at the team meeting 
this Friday to allow me to use 1.1beta for the new project I am on, 
which is due to be completed end of September.

I have got a few reasons so far - any comments or additional reasons 
would be welcome:

1.1beta is highly likely to reach release status by the end of September

It looks like 1.0.2 -> 1.1 is a fairly major upgrade - it would be 
better to start with 1.1 even though it's beta.

The ActionErrors mechanism has been upgraded and now ActionMessages are 
available too (this is an area where the project might benefit)

Indexed properties have been introduced for many of the input tags (we 
have lots of pages with multiple records to be edited at once).

Lastly, is 1.1 compatible with J2SE 1.4 ?  I can't work out from the 
website whether it only requires 1.2 or if that is just struts 1.0.2 - I 
remember a discussion about chained exceptions - which are only possible 
in J2SE 1.4

Thanks
Adam
