Ok, there were no complaints about the current test build that were

The voting period is typically 72 hours, putting its close time as
roughly 7am PST on Monday, Dec 1st. If the vote passes, I'll push

#break for ending #foreach loops prematurely

fixes for many annoying little syntax/parsing bugs
#parse( "mymacros.vm" )
CommonsLogLogChute, ServletLogChute
Fixed and much improved StringResourceLoader
velocimacro.max.depth
programmatic inclusion of macro libraries
can now call fixed-length list methods on arrays
$velocityHasNext for #foreach loops
configurable connection timeout for URLResourceLoader
Uberspect chainability and link-ability
consistent, correct line numbers and macro/template stacks in logs
