The Java Web Parts (JWP) team is proud to announce that new year's day sees our first "GA" release, 1.0, unleashed upon the world!

For those of you new to JWP, it is a project that provides small, reusable and largely independant Java components of interest to all web application developers. You can think of this project as being somewhat similar to the Jakarta Commons projects conceptually.

JWP is comprised of a number of packages, each supplied in its own individual JAR, with little (ideally no) cross-dependency. The packages currently include:

* AjaxParts - A collection of components for doing AJAX, including the very popular AjaxParts Taglib (APT Taglib)

* Context - A collection of components for dealing with a servlet context including functionality to calculate the size of the context object

* Filter - A collection of useful servlet filters including a Javascript compressor, a request recorder, a cross-site scripting filter, a compression filter and an IP access control filter

* Listener - Context and Session listeners for various occassions including functionality to limit the number of concurrent sessions

* Misc - Things that didn't fit anywhere else, including a very powerful CoR implementation and a utility to play back recorded sessions created with the session recorder filter (useful for automated load testing)

* Taglib - Various tag libraries including some UI widgets, string utilities and a taglib to insert various useful Javascript functions

* Servlet - A collection of servlets to fulfill common needs including one that can render a graphical representation of a string of text using various font styles

* Request - Classes and functions for dealing with an HTTP request including functions to get various information about a request easily

* Response - Classes and functions for dealing with an HTTP response including functionality to encode HTML entities in the response

* Session - Classes and functions... eh, you see the pattern! (includes the ability to calculate the size of session, etc)

Please visit http://javawebparts.sourceforge.net for further info, docs, downloads, all that jazz.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled mailing list posts and wish every a happy new year!
