Hello Rollers,
just wanted to mention that before I updated roller to use latest apache
lucene, I tried to update apache velocity, but had to give up fairly
early on.
The problem was that the build is using the texen ant task of velocity
1.7* to generate the db scripts and velocity 2.1 doesn't provide this
package anymore. Looks like roller is stuck with 1.7 for now unless the
build is changed to use freemarker for the db scripts or some other
solution is found.
btw spring security would need some renovating too. Its two major
versions behind.

best regards,
michael
