Jakarta Velocity v1.0 beta 1 Released

Geir Magnusson Jr. writes "The Velocity project is pleased to announce the release of Version 1.0 beta 1 of the Velocity template engine. Velocity is a powerful template engine written in Java and released as open source software under the Apache Software License. Ideal for web development, it's a great alternative to JSP, ASP, PHP and other dynamic server-side web technologies.

Velocity 1.0 Is Out!

[Spoke]

Velocity 1.0 has been officially released, check it out [apache.org].

It's more than a web based template engine, it also works wonders for generating any type of text-based content from templates.

The Velocity engine can be loaded in stand alone apps as well as Java Servlets, so it's very flexible!

It also performs great, I found it significantly faster than JSP for some simple pages.

Wasn't just me!

It was a whole bunch of us - Jason and Jon who got it rolling, Daniel, Dave, Josh, Bob, Terence, John, Leon, Fedor, Christoph, Jose, Paulo, Kasper, Chris, Ed, Frank, Sven, Thomas... And tons of others... Big community effort!

I just got lucky that the moderators took my submission. :)
Give us a look

This is the kind of tool that proves JSP is the wrong way to go...

You go, girl!
