 <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging.html">commons-logging</a> wrapper layer instead.
 Use the <code>Enum</code> implementation from Jakarta's
 <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/lang.html">commons-lang</a> library.

 Rework dynamic code loading so that a subclass of
 <A href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/ApplicationServlet.html">ApplicationServlet</a>
 is no longer necessary.

 <p>Add methods to
 <A href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/INamespace.html">INamespace</a> and
 <A href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/IPage.html">IPage</a>
 to make dealing with namespaces and qualified page names easier.

 <p>

 <h3>Release 2.2-beta-3</h3>

 Upgrade to Jetty 4.1.0 and OGNL 2.1.4.

 <p>
 Mind Bridge has contributed a Table component (really, a complete framework
 for creating sortable tables that present data in page-sized blocks).

 <pre>
 [ 608368 ] DataSqueezer / ClassLoader

 client-side validation of input.  If a field is in error when the form
 is submitted, then an alert is displayed and the field is selected.

 <p>Begin making more use of OGNL expressions in place of Java code.

 <p>Malcom Edgar has contributed a <A href="doc/ComponentReference/DatePicker.html">DatePicker</a>
 component.

 <p>Some more refactorings: IComponent methods  addWrapped()/renderWrapped() -&gt; addBody()/renderBody().

 <p>Tapestry documentation is now available in PDF format.

 <pre>
 [ 602881 ] Add hooks for ValidField client-side
 [ 603023 ] StaleSession.page has error

 [ 607074 ] Make IMarkupWriter a bit smarter
 [ 604201 ] Markup Writer should output XHTML
 [ 607451 ] log error when unmatched components
 </pre>

 <h3>Release 2.2-beta-1</h3>

 <p>Tapestry has now replaced its simple
 property path support with the far
 more powerful <a href="http://www.ognl.org">Object Graph
 Navigation Library</a> expressions.  This promises to greatly extend
 the expressiveness of the specifications and further reduce
 the need for Java code.  The <code>property-path</code>
 attribute of the <code>&lt;binding&gt;</code> element has been renamed
 to <code>expression</code> (this only affects the latest, 1.3, version
 of the DTD).

 <p>There are some small costs to using OGNL; the largest being
 a restriction in bean names, component ids and asset names.  All
 of these must now be valid Java identifiers, and so cannot contain the
 dash ('-') character, which was previously permitted.  This affects all
 specifications, including older versions.

 <p>Malcolm Edgar has lead the push to provide an excellent
 <A href="doc/ComponentReference">Tapestry Component Reference</a>.

 <p>
 You can now control the exact location of a component template by
 declaring an asset named <code>$template</code> (which is not normally
 a legal asset name, due to the dollar sign).  If such an asset exists,
 then it is used as the template.

 <p>A number of poorly named components have been renamed:
 <ul>
 <li>Action -&gt; ActionLink
 <li>Direct -&gt; DirectLink
 <li>InsertBlock -&gt; RenderBlock
 <li>InsertWrapped -&gt; RenderBody
 <li>Page -&gt; PageLink
 <li>Service -&gt; ServiceLink
 <li>ShowInspector -&gt; InspectorButton
 <li>Text -&gt; TextArea< /li>
 </ul>

 <p>Previous names will be maintained until at least release 2.3.

 <p>
 In addition, the documentation has been brought (largely) up to date
 with the significant changes so far in release 2.2.

 <pre>
 [ 582421 ] Way to specify template location
 [ 596929 ] NumericField params require java-type
 [ 597314 ] Problems with URLs
 [ 595985 ] Tapestry behind firewall
 [ 598609 ] NumericField displayWidth inconsistent
 [ 598371 ] Radio and RadioGroup broken
 [ 599608 ] App startup exception

 </pre>


 <h3>Release 2.2-alpha-4</h3>

 Update to latest versions of JCommon, JFreeChart and Log4J.  Added the
 &lt;extension&gt; element to the application and library specifications.

 <pre>

 <h3>Release 2.2-alpha-3</h3>

 Tapestry now supports libraries, which can provide components, pages and engine services to
 an application.  Libraries can also include libraries.  The application specification
 has been ammended to include a new &lt;library&gt; element, and a new type of specification,
 the library specification, has been added.

 <p>
 Renamed all page specifications from ".jwc" to ".page".

 <pre>
 [ 584466 ] Cant set bean prop from localized string
 [ 494453 ] invalid-date-format message string wrong
 [ 584731 ] Text's value parameter required
 [ 579843 ] PageLoader INFO msg wrong
 [ 586171 ] Add namespace/library support
 </pre>

 <h3>Release 2.2-alpha-2</h3>

 Revamp how services construct and parse URLs.  Rework service parameters to
 be typed objects, instead of simple strings (this is a change which
 may break some existing code).

 <p>
 A new version of the DTD may now be used which distinguishes between
 page specifications and component specifications (page specifications
 do not specify several attributes and elements related to
 component parameters).

 <pre>
 [ 581199 ] Slashes in service parameters
 [ 581160 ] Wrong case in WAR file name
 [ 579583 ] Simplify PropertySelection
 [ 581691 ] Object not String for service parameters

 reorganizations, especially to the way component parameters are handled.

 <p>
 Added an initial <a href="doc/ContributorsGuide/ContributorsGuide.html">Contributor's Guide</a> for Developers
 wishing to contribute code to the Tapestry project.

 <pre>
 [ 549479 ] Rename packages to net.sf.tapestry
 [ 550280 ] Remove IDirectListener
 [ 555165 ] Simplify setupLogging()
 [ 553310 ] Set properties from parameter bindings

 is still an <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/components/IServiceLink.html">IServiceLink</a> which means it can wrap
 <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/html/Rollover.html">Rollover</a> components.

 <h3>Release 2.0.1</h3>

 Removed a lot of deprecated code.

 <pre>
 [ 536289 ] remove Jetty dependencies
 [ 537398 ] Fix synch/double check bugs
 [ 537426 ] Remove object pooling
 [ 539600 ] java-class should be java-type in docs
 [ 494221 ] Add PDF (or printable) documentation
 </pre>

 <h3>Release 2.0.0</h3>

 Added the <a target="_top" href="quotes_frame.html">Quotes</a> page to this website.  Added two new tabs to the
 Workbench, demonstrating redirects and exception reporting.
 Marked a number of methods (related to object pooling) as deprecated.

 <p>Minor formatting changes to the web site and Virtual Library.

 <h3>Release 1.0.10</h3>

 Changed the build to include debugging symbols with the frameworks.  Fixed a deployment problem with
 the Tutorial.  Added descriptions to most components and parameters.  Modified the Inspector to
 display component and parameter descriptions.

 <p>Added a new page to the Workbench Tutorial: Chart.  The Chart page allows a user to dynamically
 create a pie chart.

 <p>Made it easier to create subclasses of
 <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/AbstractResponseWriter.html">AbstractResponseWriter</a>.

 <pre>
 [ 532562 ] Submit.jwc contains error
 [ 532587 ] Submit throws NPE
 [ 532815 ] ValidationDelegate errors
 [ 532758 ] add descriptions to builtin components
 [ 499655 ] HTMLResponseWriter enhancements
 </pre>

 <h3>Release 1.0.9</h3>

 <p>The framework and contrib jar files are now named with the release number (i.e.,
 <code>com.primix.tapestry-1.0.9.jar</code>).  In addition,
 the source code for these frameworks, and the examples, is now distributed as
 Jar files instead of directories of files in the <code>src</code> directory.
 This makes for easier source lookup when using
 <a target="_top" href="http://www.eclipse.org">Eclipse</a>, and shrinks the size of the distribution
 as well.

 <p>The way engine services are defined and used has been completely overhauled.
 Services are now defined
 in the application specification and a single
 instance of the service object is instantiated
 and shared by all engine instances (for the application).

 <p>Made it easier to override the creation of the specification source, template source, etc. in subclasses
 of
 <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/engine/AbstractApplication.html">AbstractApplication</a>.


 <p>The <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/form/Submit.html">Submit</a> and
 <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/form/ImageSubmit.html">ImageSubmit</a> components may now have
 their own listener, which is notified before the containing form's listener.

 <p>More reworking of validation; the validation delegate can now
 track errors in any kind of form component and can track errors that
 aren't associated with any particular component.

 <pre>
 [ #510175 ] add service registration to .application
 [ #511256 ] Enhance Validation Framework
 </pre>

 <h3>Release 1.0.8</h3>

 <p>A complete overhaul of the validating text field support.  The previous implementation
 used subclasses of AbstractValidatingTextField (which no longer exists) to add new types
 of validation; the new implementation has a single component,
 <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/valid/ValidField.html">ValidField</a>, and many implementations
 of <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/valid/IValidator.html">IValidator</a>.

 <p>At long last, the <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/form/Upload.html">Upload</a> component.

 <p>Reimplemented the Virtual Library application using
 <a target="_top" href="http://mckoi.com/database/">McKoi Database</a>, to be compatible with JBoss 2.4.3 (which no
 longer includes InstantDB).

 <pre>
 [ #506661 ] private asset configuration
 [ #494456 ] StringValidator minLength message wrong
 [ #488476 ] Generated URLs should contain entities.
 [ #488432 ] Make duplicate page names illegal
 [ #487394 ] NumericField doesn't work with long
 [ #501750 ] StringValidator
 [ #499057 ] BaseValidator summary typo
 [ #487619 ] javadoc link errors
 </pre>


 <h3>Release 1.0.7</h3>

 <p>Removed Primix copyrights, as I no longer work there or do any work on their time.

 <p>Consolidated and cleaned up many of the tutorials into the new Workbench.

 <p>Improvements to Inspector's Properties Explorer.  It is now more tolerant of exceptions thrown while
 accessing properties.

 <p>Streamlined the distribution by removing the source for documentation.


 <PRE>
 [ #480433 ] StatementAssembly - access to JBDC 2.0
 [ #469747 ] more flexible application parser
 [ #484184 ] JavaDoc error
 </pre>

 				<h3>Release 1.0.6</h3>

 				<p>Tapestry now uses <a target="_top" href="http://jakarta.apache.org/ant">Ant</a>
 				as its build tool.  The GNU Makefile Java Build Environment has
 				been removed.

 				<p>The Tapestry Inspector now has a powerful Properties Explorer which allows
 				for dynamic navigation and display of an object's properties (similar
 				to what a debugger provides).

 				<p>Localization of context assets was broken in Tomcat; it now works
 				in both Tomcat and Jetty.

 				<h3>Release 1.0.5</h3>

 				<p>Added a mechanism to clear out pooled objects when they haven't been used
 				for some time.  The interface <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/util/ICleanable.html">ICleanable</a>
 				has the details.

 				<p>Made a number of other efficiency improvements.  Particularily, the page loader now weeds
 				out informal parameters that can't be used (because they conflict with formal parameter names,
 				or because the component owns the attributes), preventing them from being added as component
 				bindings.  The old method was to weed out the unwanted parameters on every
 				render, which was more expensive.

 				<p>Improved the <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/valid/NumericField.html">NumericField</a>
 				component to deal with null values in an intelligent manner.

 				<p>It is now possible to set properties of
 				<a href="doc/DevelopersGuide/components.helper-beans.html">helper beans</a>.

 				<p>The full distribution now bundles
 				<a target="_top" href="http://jetty.mortbay.com">Jetty 3.1RC9</a>
 				and the Virtual Library is now compatible with
 				<a target="_top" href="http://www.jboss.org">JBoss 2.4.0</a>.

                 <h3>Release 1.0.4</h3>

                 <p>Release 1.0.4 debuted the finished Tapestry Home and Virtual Library.

	<h3>Release 2.2-beta-2</h3>

	The <A href="doc/ComponentReference/ValidField.html">ValidField</a> now performs
	client-side validation of input. If a field is in error when the form
	is submitted, then an alert is displayed and the field is selected.

	<p>Begin making more use of OGNL expressions in place of Java code.

	<p>Malcom Edgar has contributed a <A href="doc/ComponentReference/DatePicker.html">DatePicker</a>
	component.

	<p>Some more refactorings: IComponent methods addWrapped()/renderWrapped() -> addBody()/renderBody().

	<p>Tapestry documentation is now available in PDF format.

	<pre>
	[ 602881 ] Add hooks for ValidField client-side
	[ 603023 ] StaleSession.page has error
	[ 603208 ] Support parameter direction "form"
	[ 603269 ] ListEdit improvements

	[ 604834 ] InspectorButton disabled param
	[ 604646 ] ImageSubmit ignores disabledImage
	[ 603260 ] make Form "listener" not required
	[ 603826 ] IUploadFile provide Mime Type
	[ 604944 ] Add DateEdit component
	[ 603130 ] Add an initPage() method to AbstractPage
	[ 607074 ] Make IMarkupWriter a bit smarter
	[ 604201 ] Markup Writer should output XHTML
	[ 607451 ] log error when unmatched components
	</pre>

	<h3>Release 2.2-beta-1</h3>

	<p>Tapestry has now replaced its simple
	property path support with the far
	more powerful <a href="http://www.ognl.org">Object Graph
	Navigation Library</a> expressions. This promises to greatly extend
	the expressiveness of the specifications and further reduce
	the need for Java code. The <code>property-path</code>
	attribute of the <code><binding></code> element has been renamed
	to <code>expression</code> (this only affects the latest, 1.3, version
	of the DTD).

	<p>There are some small costs to using OGNL; the largest being
	a restriction in bean names, component ids and asset names. All
	of these must now be valid Java identifiers, and so cannot contain the
	dash ('-') character, which was previously permitted. This affects all
	specifications, including older versions.

	<p>Malcolm Edgar has lead the push to provide an excellent
	<A href="doc/ComponentReference">Tapestry Component Reference</a>.

	<p>
	You can now control the exact location of a component template by
	declaring an asset named <code>$template</code> (which is not normally
	a legal asset name, due to the dollar sign). If such an asset exists,
	then it is used as the template.

	<p>A number of poorly named components have been renamed:
	<ul>
	<li>Action -> ActionLink
	<li>Direct -> DirectLink
	<li>InsertBlock -> RenderBlock
	<li>InsertWrapped -> RenderBody
	<li>Page -> PageLink
	<li>Service -> ServiceLink
	<li>ShowInspector -> InspectorButton
	<li>Text -> TextArea< /li>
	</ul>

	<p>Previous names will be maintained until at least release 2.3.

	<p>
	In addition, the documentation has been brought (largely) up to date
	with the significant changes so far in release 2.2.

	<pre>
	[ 582421 ] Way to specify template location
	[ 596929 ] NumericField params require java-type
	[ 597314 ] Problems with URLs
	[ 595985 ] Tapestry behind firewall
	[ 598609 ] NumericField displayWidth inconsistent
	[ 598371 ] Radio and RadioGroup broken

	[ 601018 ] Use OGNL instead of home brew
	</pre>


	<h3>Release 2.2-alpha-4</h3>

	<h3>Release 2.2-alpha-3</h3>

	Tapestry now supports libraries, which can provide components, pages and engine services to
	an application. Libraries can also include libraries. The application specification
	has been ammended to include a new <library> element, and a new type of specification,
	the library specification, has been added.

	<p>
	Renamed all page specifications from ".jwc" to ".page".

	<pre>
	[ 584466 ] Cant set bean prop from localized string

	<pre>
	[ 576523 ] Better syntax for Script documents
	[ 562964 ] Non-unique app name problems
	[ 578869 ] InsertComponent/DateField, null values
	[ 578921 ] Error in listener map error message

	<string-binding> element for accessing localized strings,
	and a new form of markup in the template
	to access localized strings.

	<pre>
	[ 556766 ] Improve localization support
	[ 560256 ] Make some property bindings invariant
	[ 560255 ] ListEdit: doesn't render element

	<pre>
	[ 549482 ] NPE in RequestCycle.observeChange()
	</pre>

	<h3>Release 2.0.2</h3>

	Changed the inspector icon into an animated GIF for compatiblility with more browsers.

	<p>
	Created the new <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/link/GenericLink.html">GenericLink</a> component, which allows links to arbitrary URLs (including JavaScript event handlers), but
	is still an <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/components/IServiceLink.html">IServiceLink</a> which means it can wrap
	<a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/html/Rollover.html">Rollover</a> components.

	<pre>
	[ 463649 ] NN6 & ShowInspector
	[ 544394 ] Release notes / deleted methods

	[ 549314 ] Spec parse error
	[ 521456 ] Allow IRequestCycle.discardPage() from listeners

	<h3>Release 2.0.1</h3>

	Removed a lot of deprecated code.

	<pre>
	[ 536289 ] remove Jetty dependencies
	[ 537398 ] Fix synch/double check bugs
	[ 537426 ] Remove object pooling
	[ 539600 ] java-class should be java-type in docs
	[ 494221 ] Add PDF (or printable) documentation
	</pre>

	<h3>Release 2.0.0</h3>

	Added the <a target="_top" href="quotes_frame.html">Quotes</a> page to this website. Added two new tabs to the
	Workbench, demonstrating redirects and exception reporting.
	Marked a number of methods (related to object pooling) as deprecated.

	<p>Minor formatting changes to the web site and Virtual Library.

	<h3>Release 1.0.10</h3>

	Changed the build to include debugging symbols with the frameworks. Fixed a deployment problem with
	the Tutorial. Added descriptions to most components and parameters. Modified the Inspector to
	display component and parameter descriptions.

	<p>Added a new page to the Workbench Tutorial: Chart. The Chart page allows a user to dynamically
	create a pie chart.

	<p>Made it easier to create subclasses of
	<a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/AbstractResponseWriter.html">AbstractResponseWriter</a>.

	<pre>
	[ 532562 ] Submit.jwc contains error
	[ 532587 ] Submit throws NPE
	[ 532815 ] ValidationDelegate errors
	[ 532758 ] add descriptions to builtin components
	[ 499655 ] HTMLResponseWriter enhancements
	</pre>

	<h3>Release 1.0.9</h3>

	<p>The framework and contrib jar files are now named with the release number (i.e.,
	<code>com.primix.tapestry-1.0.9.jar</code>). In addition,
	the source code for these frameworks, and the examples, is now distributed as
	Jar files instead of directories of files in the <code>src</code> directory.
	This makes for easier source lookup when using
	<a target="_top" href="http://www.eclipse.org">Eclipse</a>, and shrinks the size of the distribution
	as well.

	<p>The way engine services are defined and used has been completely overhauled.
	Services are now defined
	in the application specification and a single
	instance of the service object is instantiated
	and shared by all engine instances (for the application).

	<p>Made it easier to override the creation of the specification source, template source, etc. in subclasses
	of
	<a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/engine/AbstractApplication.html">AbstractApplication</a>.


	<p>The <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/form/Submit.html">Submit</a> and
	<a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/form/ImageSubmit.html">ImageSubmit</a> components may now have
	their own listener, which is notified before the containing form's listener.

	<p>More reworking of validation; the validation delegate can now
	track errors in any kind of form component and can track errors that
	aren't associated with any particular component.

	<pre>
	[ #510175 ] add service registration to .application
	[ #511256 ] Enhance Validation Framework
	</pre>

	<h3>Release 1.0.8</h3>

	<p>A complete overhaul of the validating text field support. The previous implementation
	used subclasses of AbstractValidatingTextField (which no longer exists) to add new types
	of validation; the new implementation has a single component,
	<a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/valid/ValidField.html">ValidField</a>, and many implementations
	of <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/valid/IValidator.html">IValidator</a>.

	<p>At long last, the <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/form/Upload.html">Upload</a> component.

	<p>Reimplemented the Virtual Library application using
	<a target="_top" href="http://mckoi.com/database/">McKoi Database</a>, to be compatible with JBoss 2.4.3 (which no
	longer includes InstantDB).

	<pre>
	[ #506661 ] private asset configuration
	[ #494456 ] StringValidator minLength message wrong
	[ #488476 ] Generated URLs should contain entities.
	[ #488432 ] Make duplicate page names illegal
	[ #487394 ] NumericField doesn't work with long
	[ #501750 ] StringValidator
	[ #499057 ] BaseValidator summary typo
	[ #487619 ] javadoc link errors
	</pre>


	<h3>Release 1.0.7</h3>

	<p>Removed Primix copyrights, as I no longer work there or do any work on their time.

	<p>Consolidated and cleaned up many of the tutorials into the new Workbench.

	<p>Improvements to Inspector's Properties Explorer. It is now more tolerant of exceptions thrown while
	accessing properties.

	<p>Streamlined the distribution by removing the source for documentation.


	<PRE>
	[ #480433 ] StatementAssembly - access to JBDC 2.0
	[ #469747 ] more flexible application parser
	[ #484184 ] JavaDoc error
	</pre>

	<h3>Release 1.0.6</h3>

	<p>Tapestry now uses <a target="_top" href="http://jakarta.apache.org/ant">Ant</a>
	as its build tool. The GNU Makefile Java Build Environment has
	been removed.

	<p>The Tapestry Inspector now has a powerful Properties Explorer which allows
	for dynamic navigation and display of an object's properties (similar
	to what a debugger provides).

	<p>Localization of context assets was broken in Tomcat; it now works
	in both Tomcat and Jetty.

	<h3>Release 1.0.5</h3>

	<p>Added a mechanism to clear out pooled objects when they haven't been used
	for some time. The interface <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/util/ICleanable.html">ICleanable</a>
	has the details.

	<p>Made a number of other efficiency improvements. Particularily, the page loader now weeds
	out informal parameters that can't be used (because they conflict with formal parameter names,
	or because the component owns the attributes), preventing them from being added as component
	bindings. The old method was to weed out the unwanted parameters on every
	render, which was more expensive.

	<p>Improved the <a href="doc/api/net/sf/tapestry/valid/NumericField.html">NumericField</a>
	component to deal with null values in an intelligent manner.

	<p>It is now possible to set properties of
	<a href="doc/DevelopersGuide/components.helper-beans.html">helper beans</a>.

	<p>The full distribution now bundles
	<a target="_top" href="http://jetty.mortbay.com">Jetty 3.1RC9</a>
	and the Virtual Library is now compatible with
	<a target="_top" href="http://www.jboss.org">JBoss 2.4.0</a>.

	<h3>Release 1.0.4</h3>

	<p>Release 1.0.4 debuted the finished Tapestry Home and Virtual Library.
