The Velocity developers are pleased to make the third beta release of VelocityTools 2.0 available for download.
This should be useable as a drop in replacement for Tools 1.4 or Tools 2.0-beta2, with a few minor exceptions. The 2.x series of VelocityTools also requires both Velocity 1.5+ and JDK 1.5+.
Since the last beta release, there have been a number of small fixes, additional features (like caching for VelocityViewTag), and especially, improvements in the extensibility of VelocityView.
The Velocity developers are very interested in all feedback regarding Tools 2.0, especially regarding backwards compatibility with apps designed for Tools 1.4 or earlier. We aim to enable a smooth, incremental transition for developers and their applications.
Downloads of Tools 2.0-beta3 are available here.
