Tapestry Release 0.2.6

Getting Started

Tapestry is now distributed as a pre-compiled JAR file and includes pre-generated Javadoc.

Also included with the distribution are a number of additional JAR files that are also released under open-source licenses. The end result is that, after installing the Java Build Environment you can have the tutorials up and running in seconds!

This product includes software developed by the Apache Software Foundation ( http://www.apache.org/).
