Apache Velocity is well-known in the Java field as a lightweight, 
easy-to-use templating library for creating dynamic web sites and 
performing other text-generation tasks. It relies on the Velocity 
Template Language (VTL) which is aimed at ease-of-use and simplicity.


This major release introduces several consistent changes and new 
features, including:


- Switch to the SLF4J logging facade.
- Configurable whitespace gobbling, that lets template writers indent 
their templates without polluting the output.
- VTL Method arguments and array subscripts can now be arithmetic 
expressions.
- Configurable method arguments conversion handler, which by default 
handles automatic conversions between booleans, numbers, strings and enums.

- Significant reduction of the memory consumption.
- JSR-223 Scripting Engine implementation.
- Made Velocity OSGi-ready.


Claude,

thank you for the hard work and great collaboration on this.

Michael
