Oh yeah. Well, my original plan was to deprecate handleRequest() in a VelocityTools 1.4 release (which looks unlikely to happen), so that i could remove it in VelocityTools 2.0 release. However, since i'm trying to make the transition between 1.3 and 2.0 smooth, i'll replace the handleRequest() method in 2.0. It will, however, still be deprecated.
As to what you should do in replacement, well, it depends on what you are trying to accomplish in overriding that method. If you are just populating the context based on the request, then you should override the fillContext(context, request) method. If you need access to the response and request both, then you should override createContext(request, response) and call super.createContext(request, response) right away to get access to the context. If, however, you are altering how templates are retrieved, then you should override the appropriate getTemplate(...) method. If none of those satisfy, then let me know what you're trying to do, and i'll help guide as i can.
