[Springframework-developer] Final preparations for 1.1 RC1

[<jue...@we...>]

Everybody,
=20
Seems like we're finally ready for 1.1 RC1, already with full 1.1 scope:
=20
- Mark has provided a refined version of the JMS support
- Thomas has already added support for JDBC-generated keys
- Darren has committed bind support for Velocity and FreeMarker
- Seth has contributed some tag refinements for JSP views.
=20
The remaining tasks that I see are:
=20
- We need to adapt the source code formatting of the JMS support: I =
still see nasty empty lines after each code line on Windows: maybe =
Unix/Windows line feed differences?
=20
- I'd like to review the source code of the final version of JMS =
support. Just about polishing and javadoc, as always before a release =
:-)
=20
- Thomas is already working on using a single API approach for =
JDBC-generated keys, including moving the classes to a different =
package.
=20
- I'd like to move BindStatus and the new BindStatusHelper class from =
servlet.tags to servlet.support. JSPs using the BindTag should still =
work, provided that they get freshly compiled. Any objections to this?
=20
- I'd like to refine resource loading in VelocityFormView and =
FreeMarkerFormView: This is not entirely clean when combined with custom =
resource paths yet, from a superficial glance.
=20
- We need to add Seth's NestedPathTag and include his BindTag =
refinements. I'll do this myself during the course of the week.
=20
All things considered, this means a release by the end of the week: Any =
earlier date would require dropping one of those tasks, which I don't =
think would be worth it. Thoughts?
=20
Finally, regarding form simplification macros, i.e. Struts-style HTML =
input tag wrappers: Do we already have something here, for either JSP =
2.0, Velocity or FreeMarker?
