[ANNOUNCE] Velocity Engine 2.0 RC7 test build available

A new test build of Velocity Engine 2.0 is available (RC7).

No determination as to the quality ('alpha,' 'beta,' or 'GA') of 
Velocity Engine 2.0 has been made, and at this time it is simply a "test 
build". We welcome any comments you may have, and will take all feedback 
into account if a quality vote is called for this build.

Release notes:

* 
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/velocity/velocity-engine/2.0/release-notes.html

Distribution:

  * https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/velocity/velocity-engine/2.0/

Maven 2 staging repository:

  * 
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachevelocity-1018/

A vote regarding the quality of this test build will be initiated within 
the next couple of days.

Release Candidates changelog:

   RC1: initial candidate
   RC2: bugfixes
   RC3: review SLF4J Logger names (instead of a single logger named 
"Velocity", have a hierarchy of loggers with a base of 
'org.apache.velocity')
   RC4: minor fixes
   RC5:
    * the default encoding is now UTF-8 (and not the platform default)
    * commons-collections is not any more a compilation dependency
    * commons-lang3 dependency is not any more shaded
    * the configuration API doesn't reference ExtProperties
    * the events API has been optimized and reviewed: all events do 
receive the current Context
    * there has been a few optimizations in ASTStringLiteral rendering
   RC6: mostly code cleaning and build process optimization ; assembly 
module has been dropped
   RC7: still a lot of core cleanups and reviews, plus:
    * new strategy for reference boolean evaluation
    * allow expressions inside [ ] : $foo[$bar + 1]


Regards,

   Claude

Checked the entire diff at GitHub: looks good to me, nothing to complain.

Great work, Claude!

Thank you for your reviews.

Alas, I have a little fix to push, so I'm gonna publish an RC8...

My new disambiguation code broke the fact that a vararg method is 
considered less specific than a non-vararg method. For instance, in 
Velocity Tools, max(a,b) and max(a[]) became ambiguous whereas max(a,b) 
is to be chosen.
