migration

Scenario: A fairly mature project uses Struts2 and Spring and Hibernate. I say mature because it has been going on a for a while and there are many struts actions written already.

Suppose we wanted to remove Struts2 from the project and instead depend entirely on Spring MVC without rewriting the entire project.

Is this something that should even be considered? Are there any migration guides out there? Has anyone done this before and would like to warn me against it?
