[albatross-users] Albatross 1.11 pre2 released

[Dave Cole]

I have just packaged up the 1.11pre2 release of Albatross.  As this is
a pre-release the announcement is only being sent to this list.

The documentation has been updated.  You can see a list of the changes
here.

This release is intended to be fully compatible with the 1.10 release.

A lot of minor reorganisation of the samples has been performed to
enable the samples to be executed via the al-httpd program.  al-httpd
is a very useful tool for testing during development.

For example, the tree1 sample can be executed like this:

$ cd samples/tree2/
$ al-httpd tree.app 8080 /alsamp/images ../images/

You can now point your browser at http://localhost:8080/ to try the
example.  al-httpd allows pairs of URI to filesystem path prefix
translations to be specified on the command line.  This allows static
resources to be served by al-httpd.

The only difference between this release and the 1.11pre1 release is a
small patch that Andrew found to make the <al-select> tag generate the
name and value attributes via the EvalAttribMixin class.  The patch
should not cause any problems to any existing code.

If there are no complaints about this pre release I turn it into 1.11
next week.
