IzPack 5.0.0-beta1 available
On behalf of the IzPack team, I am pleased to announce the availability of IzPack 5.0.0-beta1!
IzPack has been under heavy work for a year. The code has been heavily refactored with the switch to Maven, the usage of PicoContainer and an extensive test suite. Meanwhile, we still have received lots of contributions and fixes.
We now need the larger IzPack community to give this codebase a try, and report issues (or even better: patches to fix them).
Big thanks go to Anthonin, Rene, David and the others for the insane refactoring work! You can now reward them by giving us your feedback.
Warnings
- You will inevitably encounter bugs and regressions in this release.
- IzPack 5.0.0 is still a long way.

Thanks again to everyone involved in this work, and see you soon for a (hopefuly!) less buggy beta2
