This is a maintenance release that mostly involves upgrading a few dependencies and improving various pain points in the distributions (many of those are thanks to enthusiastic feedback from Beth Marston). It should now be easier than ever before to hit the ground rolling with Prudence.
This release does not fix any major bug and it is not necessary to upgrade if none of the issues listed below affects you. Ubuntu repository users will be upgraded automatically. There is also a revised "download" page that will hopefully reduce the chance of confusion for new users: http://threecrickets.com/prudence/download/ Note that the "Savory JavaScript" flavor is now recommended for beginners. (The Kitchen Sink edition is a poor choice for beginners, due to the requirement of also having to install Quercus.) Revision 1064: * Distribution: archives now preserve executable permission in Unix-like systems (including OS X) (issue #9) * Distribution: archives now include a root directory (issue #10) * Distribution: an informative readme.txt is now included, with instructions on installation and troubleshooting (issue #11) * Distribution: make sure all text files are in Windows-friendly format (CR-LF line ending) * Distribution: cleaner packaging of jQuery, now also including the license * Stickstick: fixed for newer versions of WebKit browsers (Safari, Chrome) via upgrading jQuery * Dependency bumps: Restlet 2.0.9, H2 1.3.156, MongoDB Driver 2.6.5, Hazelcast 1.9.3.4, JRuby 1.6.3, Groovy 1.8.1, jQuery 1.6.2, jQuery UI 1.8.16 ------------------------------------------------------ http://restlet.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4447&dsMessageId=2827087
