RIFE

After four years of development and seventy
releases, RIFE is finally considered feature
complete. The highlights of this release are
greatly improved documentation, a content
syndication framework, callbacks, SOAP
improvements, attachment and HTML support for mail
queue, and more production configuration
parameters.

This should be the last release candidate before
the final 1.0 release. Most efforts will now go to
completing missing javadocs, creating a proper Web
site, and writing some tutorials. The highlights
of this release are IoC support, Spring
integration, full support for redeployment, and
template value renderers.

This release mainly includes bugfixes and minor convenience
changes. This release also includes full declaration of
elements in the site structure, and a new asynchronous mail
queue.

The highlights of this release include support for
Derby and One$DB/DaffodilDB databases, important
bugfixes and reduced memory usage, support for
constrained beans, detection of URL length
overflow, the automatic preservation of
serializable properties in the data flow, addition
of database capabilities and compensators, support
for internationalized requests and query strings,
and complete isolation of embedded elements.

The highlights of this release include a content management
framework with support for storing, loading, validating,
formatting, transforming, versioning, retrieving, and
streaming of various content types into all supported
databases. There is support for McKoiSQL, HypersonicSQL,
Cloudscape, and Firebird databases, full J2SE 5.0 support,
and Janino and Groovy support for site declaration, element
declaration, and template tag filtering. Defer and forward
were added to elements, element init parameters were
replaced by properties, there is a new ordinal manager,
there is a new paged navigation builder, and localization
resource bundles are reloaded.
