Current situation: in OFBiz we are currently using/distributing a patched version of Freemarker 2.3.19; the patch version addresses the bugs reported below.
News: the new version of Freemarker (2.3.20) has been finally released and it is available for download: http://freemarker.org/docs/versions_2_3_20.html Good News: the deadlock issue that was affecting OFBiz (under special conditions) that we have reported and helped to fix, has been resolved: http://sourceforge.net/p/freemarker/bugs/361/ Bad News: the "Wrong overloaded method" issue, for which Adam Heat submitted a patch to the Freemarker community and patched the 2.3.19 release we are using, was not resolved in this release: http://sourceforge.net/p/freemarker/bugs/363/ Adam, could you please check this comment from Daniel and possibly follow up with him? http://sourceforge.net/p/freemarker/bugs/363/?limit=10&page=1#bb98 "I'm looking into the overloaded method related parts (I don't mean the patch) and... there are other issues as well. Certainly I will have to *try* redesign/rewrite this stuff pretty much (it's tricky because of FM object wrapping), and of course, I will have to add switch where you can chose between old and the new implementation, globally or per template. Now this 100% won't be finished in two days, so I guess 2.3.20 will be release without this, but then I continue working on this, and release 2.3.21 when this and some other smaller things are done..." Thanks, Jacopo
