[PROPOSAL] Velocity Tools 1.0 Release
well folks, it is time that we did a release of the Velocity Tools project.
the project has been quite stable for months now, the API has been stable much
longer than that, and the project has been working and quite useful for what
seems like ages. so now, especially given the recent release of Struts 1.1, i
believe it is time to get an official distribution out there and then press on
with new development.
so, i propose we release the current codebase as version 1.0.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vote: Velocity Tools 1.0 Release
[ ] +1 I am in favor of the release, and will help support it
[ ] +0 I am in favor of the release, but am unable to help support it
[ ] -0 I am not in favor of the release
[ ] -1 I am against this proposal (must include a reason).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
only committer votes are binding, but others are welcome to chime in. :)
if all goes well, i hope to get this out there by the middle of next week.

nope. we're shipping Velocity Tools 1.0 to be compatible with Struts 1.0.2.
this is one of the main reasons that i'm so eager to get this out the door. i
want to start working on Struts 1.1, but i don't want to abandon users stuck
with Struts 1.0.x. so we're gonna give them a working release before we press
on.

yeah, i'd love to give it a look after this release is out.

Not a commiter either, but +1, although there are still a certain number of
generic tools that should be added.
I'm mostly thinking of :
- a BrowserSniffer tool
- a SmtpMailer tool
- a TabsTool (facility to handle html tabs)
- an Authenticator tool
I do have home-made draft versions of those, but have been lacking some time
to clean their code.
Gonna try to share them right now.
Anyway, it is now drastically important to increase the visibility of this
project, and a release can help...

not a committer but i'm +1
although, especially given the recent release of Struts 1.1, I think it
would be a good idea to upgrade the Struts tools and StrutsUtils to support
Struts modules before it's distributed officially :)
also, if anyone is interested i have a home-made draft of a Tiles tool.

i would definitely appreciate help going over the docs right after the release
to make sure we've made proper note of the release and how/where to download
it.
in the meantime, i think things are pretty much sufficient for release. there
are still a few tools that don't have a doc page of there own (feel free to
jump on those if you want), and i'm sure there's other stuff that could be
added too (rundown on the examples could be one). contributions of docs are
always a big help! :)

+1 :-)
I haven't made any changes to the documentation in a while. In fact, the
stuff on my website is probably a bit behind the current CVS. I'll put
the latest rev up there on Monday. (I'm also going to check out Struts
1.1 and the revised Form Validator stuff so I can create a Tool for the
client side javascript validation.)
Is there anything in the docs that's missing that I could help with?
Is there/should there be a quick run down on the examples that are
included with Vel tools?
Cheers,
Timo
