The struts-example is in cvs/jakarta-struts/contrib/struts-chain
 or in the nightly built of struts-src /jakarta-struts/contrib/struts-chain

There is a built.properties and built.xml to create struts-example war 
file using struts-chain. The build process is terrible, so you need to 
hack it. Here are the steps i used:
    1) use maven to build jetspeed-2 so i get portlet-api-1.0.jar in my 
local .maven/repository. Do not use the one in struts-chain build (I 
thing 0.6-dev)
    2) use maven to build commons-chain, so i get commons-chain-0.1.jar 
in my local repository. Do not use the one in struts-chain build.
    3) Edit the build.properties using built.properties.sample in 
struts-chain directory with your appropriate settings.
    4) Edit the buiild.xml in struts-chain directory with your 
appropriate settings. Take out the whole section of Custom Tomcat 
Integration.
   5) Use *ant clean dist* command to run against the edited build.xml. 
Be patient and correct errors in the build process as you go along.
   6) The result of successful build is 
/struts-chain/build/webapps/example/ and
/struts-chain/dist/webapps/struts-chain.war that you can manually copy 
to tomcat/webapps directory and run sub app /struts-chain
  7) You may likely have a problem to get struts-example running under 
the new design of struts-chain. If this is the case, then compare 
contents of struts-chain and old struts-example. Copy the missing of 
.dtd and jar files from struts-example to struts-chain.

P.S. I hear you are also looking at HiveMind too. Let's see how we put 
struts-chain catalog(s) as a HiveMind service so we can combine the 
strength and simplicity of the 2 frameworks into a simple-practical 
solution.
