## 6.1 Release Notes - Version 1.3.2

###

SPECIAL NOTE ON UPGRADING - README FIRST! - If you use the standard CANCEL BUTTON in your application and validate is set to true for that mapping, you MUST also specify "cancellable=true" in the mapping, otherwise, an InvalidCancelException will be thrown if the Cancel button is used. See the new Opt-In Cancel Handling feature for more.

                            <action path="/ActionThatCanBeCancelled"
                                    validate="true"
                                    cancellable="true"
                                    ...
                             </action>

You can also access to the Apache Struts source repository and change logs directly through both web browser and Subversion client interfaces.

### Struts

The Struts, including the website, is being built with Maven 2. But, of course, you can continue to build your own projects any way you like!
