  If you are upgrading from early versions of WebMacro, you should
! probably read this file.  If you're upgrading from 0.97 or better, 
! you can (probably) ignore all of this.  :)
! 
! 
! 1) WebMacro no longer requires a "WebMacro.properties" file (it is
! completely optional).  WebMacro now has a "WebMacro.defaults" file that
! is included in the .jar file.  This file is used as a base for WM's
! configuration.  If you find you need to change values, simply create a 
! "WebMacro.properties" file and include *only* the keys you need to change.
! WM will combine these two files to form the final configuration.
! 
! This also means you don't need to configure a TemplatePath, so long as you
! meet one of the following requirements:
! 
!    1) Using WM in standalone mode, your templates are accessible via the
!    system CLASSPATH; or
!    
!    2) Subclassing WMServlet in a Servlet 2.0 environment (Apache/JServ), 
!    your templates are available via your servlet container CLASSPATH; or
!    
!    3) Subclassing WMServlet in a Servlet 2.1+ environment (Turbine or Resin), 
!    your templates are available in your "application directory".  Depending
!    on your servlet engine, this could be your WEB-INF/ directory, or your 
!    "htdocs" directory.
! 
! However, if you don't like WM doing this for you, you can simply add a
! "TemplatePath: /path/to/templates" in your custom WebMacro.properties file.
! 
! 
! 2) If you are using WebMacro in standalone mode (ie, not subclassing
! WMServlet), you are most likely using a FastWriter.  The signatures for
! FastWriter's constructors have changed to include a Broker:
!    public FastWriter(Broker broker, OutputStream out, String encoding)
! 
! Your code can be easily adjusted by simply passing in the Broker returned
! from the getBroker() method of your WebMacro instance:
!    FastWriter fw = new FastWriter (_wm.getBroker(), System.out, "UTF8");
!     
!     
! 3) If you are sublcassing WMServlet, your handle() method most likely
! contains something like this at the end:
!       ...
!    Template t;
!    try {
!       t = getTemplate ("mytemplate.wm")   
!    } catch (NotFoundExceptoin nfe) {
!       System.err.println ("mytemplate.wm could not be found!");
!    }
!    
!    return t;
!    
! the getTemplate() method of WMServlet now throws a ResourceException, instead
! of a NotFoundException.  Simply change your catch block to catch the
! ResourceException and you'll be just fine.
! 
! 
! 4) org.webmacro.Context now implements java.util.Map.  This change, although
! it won't adversly affect how you use the Context object, will *require*
! you to recompile all your classes that use org.webmacro.Context.  Sorry
! for the inconvienence.
! 
! 5) If you are upgrading from a release several back from this release, recompile
! all your sources against the webmacro.jar. Don't assume that your old signatures
! match.  If one of your signatures is mismatched and will cause a fatal runtime
! error!
! 
! 6) #silence, #filter, #encode are disabled until further notice
! 
! 7) There are a lot of good resources on the website for documenting how
! to do the new things that are available now with WM.
  
! If you experience any problems or find any bugs, please send mail to
! web...@sp....

  If you are upgrading from early versions of WebMacro, you should
! probably read this file. 
  
! Since WebMacro 1.0, only 1 minor API change has been made.  WebMacro's
! simple logging API has been changed to accept "Throwable"s instead of 
! "Exceptions".  This only impacts those who have implemented their own
! LogTargets.  If you have implemeted your own LogTargets, or have otherwise
! referenced the org.webmacro.Log object (either directory or indirectly), 
! you will need to recompile _your_ code base.
  
! Beyond this, no other public API changes have been made.
