The bugs are all resolved now. (1 fixed, 1 remind, 3 later (enhancements).) So it's just a matter of what release this will be, and what to do about the deprecated methods.

So you're suggesting that I rip out the deprecated methods now, go for RC1, and damn the torpedoes that the API is incompatible between Beta 1 and RC1, and there was no warning (other than nightly builds)? You really think that's OK? Gump builds for Tomcat and Turbine will start failing as soon as I remove the deprecated methods. Tapestry won't be affected, since Mr. Tapestry doesn't like the way Gump works, and has nailed Tapestry to Beta 1. Struts already has the necessary changes. -- Martin Cooper > > If you were to go to FileUpload RC1, then perhaps Struts and FileUpload > can then go to final together. > > -Ted. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
