3.0.0 Status

[Nicolas LE BAS <ma...@nlebas.net>]

Hi team :)

I've put some time into reviewing the documentation. I've also 
deprecated a few things because I think we should advise people not to 
do them, instead of maintaining old documentation about them. Please 
have a look at:

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tiles/framework/trunk/tiles-parent/src/site/apt/whats-new.apt

What I think is still missing on the doc front:
- javadoc for the tiles-parent-based projects: Mostly removing obsolete 
parts.
- migration documentation: the one from struts-tiles is probably 
obsolete, we would need a migration path from tiles 2.x. Most of the 
changes are in the configuration part anyway.

But those should not prevent users from testing the beta.

On the dev side, the work on MustacheRenderer and ApplicationResource is
complete, possibly a tiny bit of work is left to be done on ContextResolver.

All in all I think we can hope for a beta release very soon.

Nick

Back after a little lull. Easter and three children keeps one properly offline.

Agreed.

I have some documentation up my sleeve here for the migration of finn.no
from tiles-2 to tiles-3.
This and the other things on the todo list (now mainly moderation) i'll
get to in the next week.

Let's move towards a beta then :-)
