Hi all,
It’s a pleasure for me to announce the release of Tacos 4.1.0
(http://tacos.sourceforge.net/tacos4.1/) – the first stable tacos
release supporting Tapestry 4.1.x and offering:

• Dojo Widget – Generic component for (almost) all dojo widgets.

• script.aculo.us – brand new components based on script.aculo.us

• Comet component

• New Annotations – allow you to inject ILinks and easily check if
  component parameters are bound.

• New binding prefixes – including ‘template’ that makes string
  related ognl expressions easier, and ‘absoluteAsset’ which works like
  the asset binding but makes sure that the created url is absolute.

• BeanForm – All-in-one, flexible bean editor BeanForm has become a
  major part of Tacos. This update offers complete compatibility with
  Tapestry 4.1.2.

• Tapdoc – though not yet properly released from within tacos, it
  offers a maven plugin for component reference generation.

Furthermore:

• The jars have already been deployed over at ibiblio.org – more
  installation instructions can be found at
  http://tacos.sourceforge.net/tacos4.1/tacos-core/quick-start/downloading.html

• Beanform (http://beanform.sourceforge.net/) and Tapdoc
  (http://www.erinors.com/developer/project/tapdoc/) have merged
  with Tacos.

• Huge thanks to our latest committer Igor Drobiazko whose excitement
  has shed new life to the project.

• Extra special thanks to all the people that contributed code, esp.
  Daniel Gredler, Norbert Sandor, Patrick Moore, Ming Jiang and Craig Spry

Have fun with it!
