Hi Team, this is a vote to release Roller 5.1.1. Binaries and source

used (speeds up template customization)</li>
<li><a
href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ROL-2051";>ROL-2051</a> -

For ROL-2051, I confirmed with my blog that all themes that ship with
Roller are working on smart phones, I tested using Google Chrome's
developer tools and my own smartphone. However, my particular
non-packaged theme (Rolling from Roller extras) is working only
off-and-on. It may be related to the theme's CSS rules, I haven't
investigated. What we have is at least a radical improvement though
over 5.1.0 when *none* of the themes (except the dual theme,
basic-mobile) were working on non-standard displays.
Dave, as mentioned in the preceding email, don't forget to update
rollerweblogger with "alter table weblog add defaultplugins
varchar(255);" to get you up to the official 5.1.0 database, 5.1.1 will
not work without that addition.
For the few upgrading from Roller 5.1.0 to 5.1.1, Roller is coded to ask
if you want to update your database tables, still hit "yes", it won't
make any changes because there are none coded, it will just upgrade your
Roller db version in the roller_properties table to "511".
Note I just copied over the documentation from the 5.1.0 to 5.1.1, as
it's undergone no changes.
Here's my +1. Vote will be held for 72 hours.
Regards,
Glen
