[ANNOUNCE] AppFuse 0.8 Released! Not much new in this sucker ~ the main reason for this release is to demonstrate self-registration (and auto-login) in a CMA (Container Managed Authentication) environment. I also upgraded most of the dependent packages (i.e. Struts, Hibernate) to their latest releases, and added a binary release as an optional download. [More, Download, Release Notes]

For those of you that might not know, AppFuse is a project I created in order to help me ramp up web development projects faster. I've found it takes a long time to start a project and get the directory structure, build files (incl. ant tasks for junit/cactus/canoo) and all that jazz in place - so I created appfuse. I created it for myself, I'm using it currently at Comcast, and it works great. You might say that "Maven already does this" - and you're right, but I wanted to do it the Erik Hatcher way (after reading his book). I may make an attempt to mavenize the project in the future, but I currently don't see the need. Posted in Java at Jun 12 2003, 01:08:14 PM MDT 2 Comments

What did you do for commons-dbcp.jar? It was removed from Struts 1.1 RC2, your tomcat-setup.xml still has it, but I do not find it anywhere else in the appfuse CVS. What am I missing?

Man, your post is took the words right out of my mouth. It takes a long time to get a project going to a full formal state. Appfuse rocks! I definitely want to offer suggestions, improvements and ideas, because this could really be the start of a solid base!
