[ANN] JPublish 1.0b2 Released

[Anthony Eden <me...@anthonyeden.com>]

Version 1.0b2 of the JPublish web application framework is now available
at http://www.jpublish.org/ .  This is the second beta release of the
JPublish framework.  The JPublish APIs should be fairly stable at this
point, although I cannot promise that there will not be further changes
prior to the production release.

JPublish is an open source web publishing framework which merges the
Velocity template engine from the Jakarta Apache group with a content
repository and application control framework.  Like all good web
frameworks, JPublish provides a clean separation of code, content, and
layout.

This release includes the following changes: PageManager implementation
can now be specified in the jpublish.xml configuration file.  Added
FileSystemPageManagerWithDefault class which provides a fallback to the
page descriptor default.xml if the path-specific page descriptor is not
found.  Added XMLPageManager which loads all page definitions from a
single XML file.  Includes support for a default page definition.
SiteContext now uses FileResourceLoader to load its configuration.
FileNotFoundException in FileSystemRepository and
ExtendedFileSystemRepository now reports the request path and not the
full file path.  The full path of the file not found is written to the
logs.  Added additional error logging to JPublishServlet.  Added
Page.loadConfiguration() method.  Added extractPageName(),
extractPathType() and extractPagePath() methods to PathUtilities.  Added
PageDefinition class.  Added alternate page manager implementation
examples to example WAR.
