[VOTE] Velocity Engine 1.6-beta2 release
There was no negative feedback on the test build (no feedback at all
actually), so i'm moving on to a vote.
The test build is still available here:
http://people.apache.org/~nbubna/velocity/engine/1.6-beta2/
Please vote regarding your support for releasing this new test build as
Velocity Engine 1.6-beta2:
[ ] +1 Let's do it
[ ] +0 Have fun; i don't care.
[ ] -0 Not sure about this, but i won't stop you.
[ ] -1 No, because __________________
The voting period is typically 72 hours, putting its close time as
roughly 4pm PST on Sunday, Oct 26th. If the vote passes, I'll push
this to the mirrors and perhaps begin struggling to update the web site.
With luck i'll announce it on Monday.

Re: [VOTE] Velocity Engine 1.6-beta2 release
Posted by Will Glass-Husain <wg...@gmail.com>.
Hi,
Voting +1. Terrific work, Nathan.
Tested:
* "ant test" on Win XP, JDK 1.5
* "ant test" on Win XP, JDK 1.6
* Checked the md5sums.
* Compared the zip contents to tar gz contents to jar file
* reviewed the text files, API docs, quick glance at other docs
* Ran all the examples. found a few classpath-related bugs. no big deal.
(fixed several, opened JIRA on two)
Question -- the "Changes" file in the docs is incorrect (missing beta2
stuff). Is there a generator for that file that needs to be run before
creating the release artifact? Ok to have this be a miss for a beta, though
it'd be nice to have it. (yes, next time I'll check this before the vote
:-)
