I love it when we say the same thing. :-)
I think everyone will like the new packaging, and my ultimate goal is to make everything more clear on the website.
BTW: Continuum ROCKS and I'd like to set it up to deploy the site automatically with SVN commits (in addition to building the iBATIS source), but unfortunately the WestHost RH Linux build sucks bigtime and I keep getting core dumps when Java calls svn. It works fine on my home machine.
It will happen. I'll ping some Apache folks about using Apache infra for this....it would be more secure too.
Cheers,
Clinton

A separate download (made really clear) will work well.

Also, I think we need to still make the DAO available on the site for download. Except we need to mark it as deprecated and unsupported. We should also provide upgrade instructions to users if we aren't already going to do so. I can see where this move will be very confusing to some. There are some people who are still using the DAO including our example app.

I would like to release iBATIS 2.2.1 by the end of the weekend if possible.
It's a pretty significant release, probably more than just a X.X.1 release....we could call it 2.3 if you think that would be more appropriate.
The changes so far are:
o DEPRECATED All PaginatedList related features due to misuse, minimal applicability and inflexibility
o DEPRECATED DAO Framework -- Removed from primary distribution, available as a separate download
o Removed DAO framework from Subversion source tree (tagged before removal)
o Changed deployment file naming convention, dropped "DBL" and lowercased all
o Merged common and sqlmap jar files (no more DAO means there's no point in keeping commons separate)
o Implemented transaction level PreparedStatement caching
o Fixed IBATIS-335 - Don't call setQueryTimeout if no value specified
o Fixed IBATIS-353 - Probe exception when using inheritance hierarchies
Are there any bugs etc. that should make it into the next release?
Cheers,
Clinton
