 <h3>19 April 2004 - Tapestry 3.0 Released</h3>    
-
 </a>
 
-
 <p>
 At long last, <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/tapestry/">Tapestry</a> 3.0 final release is now available. 
 This release, over one and a half years in the making, represents a significant evolution of the Tapestry web application framework.
 </p>
 
-
 <p>
 Tapestry 3.0 adds a raft of new features to the framework, all focused on improved developer productivity. Most significantly:
 <ul>
-
 <li>Implicit components, defined and configured directly in the HTML template.</li>
-
 <li>Dynamic, rather than explicit, lookup of page and component specifications. Just drop the specification files into WEB-INF.</li>
-
 <li>Automatic creation of transient and persistent properties at runtime, via bytecode enhancement. Define the properties in the specification, and let Tapestry create the property at runtime.</li>
-
 <li>Improved client- and server-side form input validation.</li>
-
 <li>Tapestry now uses Jakarta's FileUpload library.</li>
-
 <li>Line precise error reporting: runtime errors refer to the exact template or specification file and line at the root of each error.</li>
-
 </ul>
-
 </p>
-
 <p>
 But that's not all! The Tapestry team has worked tirelessly to improve and expand the documentation, 
 add new components and improve existing components,
