Re: 1.5 Release Timeline

I'm not sure a beta3 will be necessary unless there are further delays. Looking at JIRA, all replicatable bugs have been resolved and all issues with patches (save 1) have been added. We should go straight for rc1. And yes, I'd be glad to be spokesperson for press inquiries. Henning and I atte

The more canonical example for an "evaluate" tool (or directive) is being ably to dynamically decide what method to call on a particular reference. So, something along the lines of: #if( $this > $that ) #set( $method = $foo ) #else #set( $method = $bar ) #end $render.eval( "\${someRef}.${metho

Hmm. I didn't notice the beta directory. Yeah, i can move 1.3-beta1, but i don't approve of the distinction. Alphas and betas are releases. If we vote on it and announce it (as i will as soon as i can get my feet under myself after the holidays and update all the download links), then it is a
