Hey all,

We are pleased to announce the release of Wt 2.99.0, which has been
the result of development over the last few months. This branch should
ultimately lead to a Wt 3.0.0 release. We are still providing
maintenance to the Wt 2.x series (and a new maintenance release is
expected there too), however, all new development will happen in the
development branch for Wt 3.0.0.

Why the big version bump?

We made some API changes that will break existing Wt applications.
Some of these changes were on our wishlist for some time, and simplify
the API or make it more versatile (in case of the new WResource API)
or they enable nice optimizations (in case of accessing signals now
using accessor methods).

The changes, with hints how you should port over existing code, have
been detailed in the release notes:
http://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt/doc/reference/html/Releasenotes.html

With the new release, especially embedded systems developers should
feel big performance improvements, and for example the modified
treeview-dragdrop example (which now also includes a chart) runs very
well on our 180MHz embedded ARM development board (which we used to
demonstrate at FOSDEM).

You can see the new treeview drag drop example online at:

Note that we have moved away from CVS. To access the source
repository, you need to use git:

$ git clone http://www.webtoolkit.eu/git/wt.git

Regards,
koen
