Do we need a Validator GA release first?
(craigmcc: there was a vote thread for creating such a release on commons-dev started July 23. I haven't seen any follow-up, but there were sufficient votes to do this release.)
(thusted: True, Validator 1.1.3 just needs to be promoted on the website and entered into the mirroring system. I'm just having a tough time making time to finish that release, or this one. But that doesn't prevent the rolling of 1.2.2, only when we could mark it GA.)
2. BeanUtils recently released version 1.7.0 - do we want to distribute Struts with this release? I believe if we do we can get rid of the dependency on Commons Collections (is this right????).
(craigmcc: doing the testing necessary to validate the new combination would only delay things. That sounds like a good task for 1.2.3 instead of 1.2.2.)
3. Isssue of Apache Mirroring needs resolving.

4. To the unsuspecting user, the tiles-documentation.war looks about as stale
as it gets. Slow loading pages and links directly to jsp. It doesn't seem
to show proper design. Before anyone unloads on me, I know what you are
going to say. Those of us who use tiles religously know better, but thought
I'd throw that out there.
