Don't worry, I have just come back from holidays today, so there was
no hurry :-)
I will collect the votes and publish the artifacts in the next few days.

IMHO Tiles 2.1.1 is beta since there are a pair of bugs to be fixed
(lack of docs about the new structure in Tiles 2.1.1 and an extra
package in binary distribution):

[VOTE] Tiles 2.1.1 Release Quality

2008-12-22T01:47:37Z

The Tiles 2.1.1 test build has been available since 20/Dec/2008.

Release notes:

-- Notice for extension developers --
In Tiles 2.1.1 there are many changes that will impact in extensions:
* TilesApplicationContext is now created outside of container
creation, through the use of an
AbstractTilesApplicationContextFactory. So, if you are overriding
TilesApplicationContext creation, rewrite it to accomodate the new
mode.
* TilesContextFactory has been split into
TilesApplicationContextFactory and TilesRequestContextFactory, because
they are used in different contexts.
* Lots of methods have been deprecated, especially the one that expect
application-specific contexts (e.g. ServletContext). They are still
there for compilation compatibility, but they won't work as they did
anymore.

Sincerely I don't know: when I resolved this issue, strangely the
release plugin of Maven said that there was already a file in the tag
directory, but in fact the tag itself wasn't there.
How odd...

I think it is related to two things:
- the update of the svn.apache.org certificate;
- the fact that I downloaded the source from "svn.eu.apache.org" while
in the pom the "svn.apache.org" is used.
With 2.1.1 version I will try to be more careful.

Hi all
I suppose it is release time, and I would like to give Tiles users a
Christmas gift :-)
Tiles 2.0.7 and 2.1.1 could be released. Both had a blocking issue resolved:
https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/TILES-339
2.0.7 will be a bug fixing release, and probably will be the last of
the 2.0.x branch.
2.1.1 has several bug fixes, along with completed documentation.
You will see the test build published very soon. If you have anything
in contrary, I will stop the process.

Apache Tiles Board Report

2008-12-12T13:33:15Z

Already committed to svn...

The biggest accomplishment this quarter has been the successful
IP Clearance of the Velocity Tiles Plugin. The plugin was contributed by
Sergey Zolotaryov via a software grant and is now part of Tiles.

User list traffic remains steady. There is a strong indication that
many people are experimenting and developing applications using Tiles.
We are continuing efforts to recruit some of these users as developers
and probably need to step up those efforts. Our development work
continues to be driven primarily by one person, but, for the most
part, we are not having trouble finding a quorum when votes occur.

We know of no issues currently needing board attention.

Thanks,

I agree with this approach. The difference between alpha and beta is
very subtle anyway. Most projects would probably only make a
distinction between GA and "not" GA :-)

the change in the next release notes, so as not to surprise extension
developers badly.

If so, then yeah, such API instability warrants an Alpha designation.
Otherwise, if it would only break a few advanced uses, then i think
that can still legitimately be called beta.

Hi all
Yesterday and today I committed a large change in tiles-core. In particular:
* TilesContextFactory has been splitted into
TilesApplicationContextFactory and TilesRequestContextFactory;
* The TilesApplicationContext now s created before TilesContainer creation.

Since it is a major change to Tiles 2.1.0, I suppose that "beta"
quality is no longer correct.
I would like to change it to Alpha.
