Absolutely. I was unsure how things worked here, my guess was that consensus fell upon the lowest denominator, therefore Beta was with 3 votes already. But if i need to explicitly drop my vote down to Beta then i'm doing that with these words. > Indeed I'm starting to > think of tiles as an IoC framework for template-oriented programming. > What are your plans for Tiles?

The ultimate view article is being rewritten for Tiles-3 and is currently in draft. That's one, more would be nice too... Maybe a separate one on the new spring integration is another low hanging fruit. Otherwise Nick i'll focus on the code quality issue you opened (checkstyle+test-coverage). ~mck -- "We all may have come on different ships, but we’re in the same boat now." Martin Luther King.
