(craigmcc: Note that the struts-faces bugs are not directly relevant to a Struts 1.2.2 release because this library is not included.)
(niallp: I have applied patches for bugs 30707 and 30884 as it seems like a shame to release with these in. They were marked as later but if anyone objects we could release without them)
