Tapestry is released under the Apache Software Licence 2.0.
+Roadmap
+
+ Tapestry is, of course, an open-source project, with all the work coming
from unpaid volunteers. That being said, our rough timeline is as follows:
+
+ * 5.0 Release Candidate in November 2008
+
+ * 5.0 Final Release shortly thereafter
+
+ * 5.1 development to follow, on a much shorter release schedule
+
+ * ... but we are all open source developers working on our own time and
schedules are hard to pin down. Please be patient. Tapestry 5
+ is increasingly stable. Further "stable" with Tapestry usually refers to
names of interfaces and methods, not to code quality,
+ which is always very, very high.
+
+ * We are now finally edging towards a release candidate, with most work
being documentation, minor bug fixes and modest
+ enhancements. Note that Tapestry team members have been using Tapestry 5
to build production applications, and those
+ experiences are being applied back to the framework to improve its
quality: we're finding rough edges and we're
+ smoothing them out.

component.
* A {{{tapestry-ioc/injection.html}detailed guide to Injection}} has been
added.

Because of this, Tapestry will be able to change internally to a great
degree without it affecting any
of the application code <you> write. This should finally crack the backwards
compatibility nut, allowing you to have
great assurance that you can upgrade to future releases of Tapestry without
breaking your existing applications.
