Howard, It appears that development on 3.x has stalled to a complete stop. The web-site lists the latest 3.x release as 3.0.4. According to the "news" it says 3.0.4 has hundreds of bug fixes. What it doesn't show is that 3.0.4 has a threading issue. The issue was identified over two months ago. The 3.0.4 is not on any of the mirrors, I guess because of the bug.
All-in-all, it appears that not only is 3.x dead but there is a "bad" version sitting out there mis-leading potential users. Unless someone is going to pick up 3.x, the web site should be reverted back to 3.0.3. Then 3.0.4 and 3.0.5 should be deleted and all JIRA issues reflecting the fixes that were done should be re-listed as outstanding. Those "fixes" which happened in 3.0.4 are still a problem for anyone using 3.0.3 but JIRA says they were fixed. The web site might as well show that 3.x is dead and tell everyone that it will no longer be maintained. Mark Mark J.

I decided that I couldn't take a chance on 3.0.4 and reverted back to 3.0.3. I guess we are done with 3.x and will wait for 5.x or the next great GUI Framework. Tapestry has been fun and very interesting. regards, Mark Mark J.

I'm referring to this thread: "3.0.4 and repetitive method name/signature problem (class enhancement)" http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.tapestry.user/43121 Take it to the dev list when you've read that. (I'm not a dev, so as to who is managing 3 now ...) Cheers, Nick. Mark Stang wrote: > Nick, > I did a quick look and only saw references to 4.x.
