  <p>The objective of the <strong>Struts 1.0.1</strong> release is to provide

  an official release of all the bug fixes and documentation updates that have

  been made to the STRUTS_1_0_BRANCH branch since the release of Struts 1.0.</p>



  </section>





  <section name="The Plan" href="Plan">



  <p>Since the release of Struts 1.0, a number of important bugs have been

  fixed, and some notable improvements have been made to the documentation.

  Currently, these updates are available only to those people who are willing

  to obtain the source code from CVS and build their own version of Struts.

  This release will make these updates available in an official distribution,

  thus making them available to a wider audience.</p>



  <p>Therefore, the following release plan is proposed for Struts 1.0.1:

  </p>

  <ul>

  <li><em>Code Freeze / Tag Date</em> - Wednesday, November 21, 2001</li>

  <li><em>Release Manager</em> - Martin Cooper</li>

  <li><em>Release Announcement</em> - To the following mailing lists and

      web sites:

      <ul>

      <li>announcements@jakarta.apache.org</li>

      <li>struts-dev@jakarta.apache.org</li>

      <li>struts-user@jakarta.apache.org</li>
