+        The Velocity developers are pleased to make the first alpha release of
+        VelocityTools 2.0 available for download and testing.
+        
+        This is a milestone release marking the completion of most major
+        development in the Tools 2.x branch.  Significant new features include 
+        very flexible, composable toolbox configuration (via either java, xml,
+        and/or properties), lazy-loading/initialization of tools, the
+        VelocityViewTag for embedding Velocity within JSP, an assortment
+        of new and improved tools, and more.
+        
+        This should be useable as a drop in replacement for Tools 1.3,
+        with a few exceptions where things already deprecated in 1.x have been
+        removed.  This also is the first Tools release to require both
+        Velocity 1.5+ and JDK 1.5+.
+
+        Early adopters may consider the new tool management and configuration
+        facilities to be quite stable.  At this point, documentation is
+        limited to javadoc and the example apps, which have been updated
+        to demonstrate the new tools, the VelocityViewTag, and configuration.
+        We are also more than happy to answer questions on the mailing lists.
+        More information on the changes between Tools 1.x and 2.x may be found
+        {{{http://wiki.apache.org/velocity/VelocityTools2Planning}}here}.
+        
+        The Velocity developers are very interested in all feedback regarding
+        Tools 2.0, especially regarding backwards compatibility with apps designed
+        for Tools 1.3 or earlier.  We aim to enable a smooth, incremental transition
+        for developers and their applications.
+
+        Downloads of Tools 2.0-alpha1 are available 
+        {{{http://velocity.apache.org/download.cgi#tools}here}}.
