WebMacro 2.1 Is Scheduled For Release July 10

Greetings:

I have spent the good part of a day preparing WebMacro for a final 2.1 
release. My plan is to release WM against JDK 1.5 and servlet spec 2.4 
and use the latest version of tomcat (5.5) as a proof of its web 
compatibility. In this manner, it will stay current for a year or so.

I spent a great deal of time on the docs, the examples/, and the 
install. The examples folder now has a web.xml and a build.xml. "ant 
web" will deploy the compile/copy/deploy the examples/ directory to 
$web.home (user most modify the prop) in the build script.

I have recompiled the entire set of sources and run the full suite of 
unit tests. All unit tests complete without error.

Javadoc generation has several cosmetic errors; someone with an hour or 
two could clean this up this week. Also, eclipse shows a number of 
warnings in the code. Some I corrected; others I let stand because 
introspection functions DO read local variables.

At this point, it is time to put to rest release 2.1. Do not introduce 
any new functionality into the core. Please download the CVS Head and 
verify the above looks good to you. If you are a comitter, please make 
any changes along the guidelines above.

yours,
