JSP 2.0, Struts and Security

I've been asked to write some chapters in an upcoming JSP book that covers JSP 2.0 (JSR 152) and Servlets 2.4 (JSR 154). I'm thinking of doing a chapter on Struts and a chapter on Security. In the Struts chapter, I'd like to cover developing a Struts application using Ant, XDoclet and Middlegen - but I don't know if Middlegen supports Struts 1.1, nor if the generated JSPs can be modified to use JSP 2.0 syntax. I'd hate to spend a lot of time contributing to these projects to make my struts-based app work. So I'm asking you (the developers) what kind of app you'd like to see me develop?

For the Security chapter, I was thinking of developing an app that has form-based authentication, a Filter to look up the user's information, password encryption and an SSL login.

For the Struts chapter, I want to develop an app that developers can use to 1) learn about Struts and JSP 2.0 and 2) also has code they can use in their own projects. I'm torn because I really want to redo this photo album software (the site doesn't appear to be rendering images right now), but I want it to be useful. Hopefully by using XDoclet extensively, it doesn't matter what I write - the build and generation process will be useful.

My biggest hurdle to overcome in all this - it's due in 3 weeks! That should be a nice ball of stress that will keep me from sleeping night after night. Any advice or suggestions are welcome.

To see what JSP 2.0 is all about, check out the JSP 2.0 Early Access Release and here is a short and sweet article of changes.

Any hints on the name of the book, publisher, co-authors?

Great post on JSP. If writing book on Seucrity, please use CMA. For there you can do getUserPrincipal and get other info. .V

Also.... this is a better syntax IMO: ${bean['property']} as it allows for more EL of property. .V
