I think 4.0 final without a compatible Spindle is absurd in this modern web

This is a protest vote and I hope others would join.

Two things.

First, based upon Howard's first message, I don't think 4.0 is going out the door without TAPESTRY-724 being fixed.

Second, Tapestry 4 makes things considerably easier to do than in Tapestry 3. With Tapestry 3, I found it very difficult to accomplish anything without Spindle. With Tapestry 4, I've managed to get by fine. Sure, part of that may be due to experience, but I think T4 just makes it easier to get things done. With simpler DTDs, I don't need to rely on Spindle to auto-complete for me. With optional page specs, I don't need Spindle to help me manage all of my files.

Please don't misconstrue that to mean I don't want to see Spindle support for Tapestry 4. I'm sure Geoff has great things in the works and I'm all for whatever helps improve productivity. I'm just suggesting that the release of Tapestry 4 need not be coincidental with the release of "Spindle 4" (in quotes since I don't think anyone won the naming contest ;-).
