Congratulations to your team Ryan, I wasn't aware of Caribou until now and 
this release looks pretty good! the documentation is very complete, I'll be 
sure to try it soon.

Regards,

Denis

 Hello Clojure People,

 Happy to announce the release of a new version of Caribou!  
 http://let-caribou.in/

 There are a lot of improvements in this latest release.  We have tried to 
 incorporate all of the feedback we have received since its initial release 
 (which has been massive!).  A small selection of the improvements:

 * *Heroku support fully integrated.*  This turned out to be a big deal 
 for a lot of people, and there were some hoops to jump through before 
 getting a database set up.  I am happy to say this has been vastly 
 streamlined and improved, as well as fully documenting the process from 
 provision to deploy: http://caribou.github.io/caribou/docs/deploying.html(at 
 the bottom of that page).

 * *Routing streamlined and simplified.  *We had this split into two steps 
 before, but it is way simpler now.  Also fixed a couple issues people were 
 having with HTTP methods in nested routes.  Polaris is also now fully 
 integrated:  https://github.com/caribou/polaris

 * *Immutant removed as a direct dependency.*  A lot of people complained 
 about having to download all of Immutant even if they weren't using it! 
  This is no longer necessary, as you can now deploy to Immutant with 
 options directly in your project.clj without ever making it a dependency of 
 your project.

 * *Templating engine can be swapped out for anything.*  You can now use 
 whatever you want for templating, including Selmer:  
 https://github.com/yogthos/Selmer  (yogthos himself contributed this pull 
 request!)  Check out the bottom of this page for more details:  
 http://caribou.github.io/caribou/docs/templates.html

 And many more (check out the docs for a full list of features: 
 http://caribou.github.io/caribou/docs/outline.html ).  

 As there were a lot of changes (not all of them backwards compatible), we 
 made a guide for upgrading Caribou to the latest version if you already 
 have an instance running somewhere:

   http://caribou.github.io/caribou/docs/upgrading.html !

 Hopefully that will help out for anyone has a Caribou site under 
 development (let us know if anything comes up!)

 Thanks to everyone who contributed feedback, issues and pull requests, and 
 thanks to everyone who is using it to build awesome things.  We are working 
 hard to make it as useful as possible, and having real world feedback has 
 been invaluable to that cause.  

 Lastly, check out the roadmap for the direction we are going:  
 http://caribou.github.io/caribou/docs/roadmap.html  (Spoiler:  we got a 
 UX person!)

 We are open to any and all feedback on this or anything else!  Thanks 
 again.

 - Caribou Team
