All issues I am aware of are solved, so hopefully this will be the final
release.

Please give it a try, let me know if anything isn't working.

In case no problems arisses I will turn this release into 2.0.0 final during
the next days.

Embperl is a system for building dynamic websites with Perl.

It gives you the power to embed Perl code in your HTML/XML documents and the
ability to build your Web site out of small reusable objects in an
object-oriented style. 

Embperl has several features which are especially useful for creating
Websites, including dynamic tables, form field processing, URL
escaping/unescaping, session handling, caching, xslt transformation and
more.

See http://perl.apache.org/embperl/ (english) or http://www.ecos.de/embperl/
(german) for more information.

Enjoy

Gerald


Changes since 2.0rc4:

   - Added attribute content-type to mail:send tag (Syntax Mail).
     Patch from Axel Beckert.
   - Added preloadfiles parameter to %initparam, which allows to
     preload files in the parent process, when running under mod_perl.
     See perldoc Config.pod for details.
   - Fixed unresolved symbol when compiling under SuSE 9.3 (because SuSE
     compiles Apache 2 in maintainer mode) 
   - Fixed strange output when Perl code inside of [$ sub $] returns
     before any output.
   - Fixed mail:send tag (Syntax Mail), so that Perl code inside the tag
     for example to set an attribute, is now executed correctly.
   - Fixed incorrect quoting of single quotes inside of <textarea> values,
     reported by Axel Beckert.
   - Fixed a potential segfault in cache handling. Patch from Yatin
Chawathe.
   - Documentation cleanup
   - Added test for optKeepSpaces.
   - Added test for application object in Execute tests.
   - Make sure Embperl is listed after Apache itself in the server
signature.
