          <p>
              The objective of the <strong>Struts 1.1 Final</strong> release is to provide
              an official release of all the bug fixes and documentation updates that have
              been made to the main trunk of the jakarta-struts CVS since the release of
              Struts 1.0.2.
          </p>

      </section>

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

          <p>
              Only minor changes have been made to the codebase since the Struts 1.1
              RC2 release.
              Issues reported on the few oustanding tickets are either unconfirmed or
              may be categorized as enhancements and can be resolved in short order.
              Therefore it is time to make the latest code base available as the
              Struts 1.1 Final Release.
          </p>

          <p>
              The final release of Commons FileUpload has been approved and will be
              available for distribution with Struts 1.1 Final, as required by the
              Struts 1.1 RC2 release plan.
          </p>

          <p>
              Therefore, the following release plan is proposed for Struts 1.1 Final:
          </p>

              </li>
          </ul>

          <p>
