[DISCUSS] Ivy 2.0.0-beta2 announcement
Here is the announcement I plan to post when Ivy 2 beta2 will be available
publicly. Anything to change?
-----------8<-------------
Mar 4 2008 - The Apache Ivy project is please to announce its
2.0.0 beta 2 release, a new step on the road toward 2.0 final.
Ivy is a tool for managing (recording, tracking, resolving and
reporting) project dependencies, characterized by flexibility,
configurability, and tight integration with Apache Ant.
The status of this version is a beta, meaning that we encourage
users to try it out. This version is already providing a good stability and
robustness. API and features are still subject to change though.
Key features of the 2.0.0-beta2 release are
* enhanced Maven2 compatibility, with a fully rewritten pom parser
* improved cache management, including dynamic revision caching
with fine grain TTL
* namespace aware validation, allowing to use validation with
extra attributes
* easier settings loading, which do not require an id anymore
* numerous bug fixes as documented in Jira and in the release notes
Issues should be reported to:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY
Download the 2.0.0-beta2 release files at:
http://ant.apache.org/ivy/download.cgi
More information can be found on the Ivy website:

Regards,
Xavier Hanin (2.0.0-beta2 release mgr)

Change to
------------
This is a beta release, for wide testing with users. Problems found
at this phase can be fixed in the final release, so now is a good time to
download and use it. Although there may be some changes at
the API level, it is already being in production builds in many large Java
projects.

As
-you want to give people a big reason to test now (get your bugs fixed)
-reassure it is in use. Certainly we use the alphas at work.
