Here is how we are progressing towards 1.0.  Note the entries about new
mailing lists and a new Jetspeed CVS repository.  These will be phased
in over the next couple of weeks so stay tuned.

I would like to encourage anyone who hasn't participated in the Jetspeed
development participate in any way they can.  These things don't work
unless it is multiple people participating and considering there are
~160 people on this list and only about 4 have stepped forward we are
seeing a bad percentage.  If you are interested see ./docs/misc/TODO in
CVS.

Also, what is the status on the artwork.  The earlier this can be
implemented the better.  We are very close to 1.0 and I would like to
see this happen.

** NEWS 

- 2000/02/28
    - OCS based content subscriptions has been implemented.  Only
XMLTree has 
      been tested but other content feeds should work fine.  This is a 
      significant addition and we are 2/3 towards of the way towards a
Release
      Candidate.
    - Still waiting for artwork.
    - Individuals can now logon and at least begin to create their own 
      customized portal.  The subscriptions (true/false) needs to be
done as 
      well as making these preferences persistent.
    - Misc bugs in mass content subscription have been fixed.
    - Moving mailing lists and CVS repository.  In order to keep in step
with 
      other Apache projects, mailing lists and CVS will be moved over to 
      java.apache.org.  This will allow us to have a jetspeed-dev and 
      jetspeed-cvs mailing list as well as a java.apache.org CVS
repository that
      I can manage user accounts on.
