[ANN] Rote 0.2.4 (Textual templating, Doco)

Hi,

Well, I've been learning *a lot* from this group, and of course I've kept working on my first _real_ Ruby project to exercise my new skills, and now I'd like to just let you know that Rote is up to 0.2.4 as of today.

Since my last post about Rote we've had a few releases, and I've had some great feedback and contributions - Jonathan Paisley has been very active, adding those cool features I'd have never of thought of, and Lionel Thirry has been a great help making my documentation useful. Big thanks to both of them!

In case you missed my last announcement, Rote is a simple textual templating build tool based on Rake that provides a lightweight solution for building documentation, websites, or anything else using ERB, plain-text formatting, and layout. Briefly:

  * Build complex sectional page-based sites
  * Apply ruby code to any page or group of pages
  * Command-line or Rakefile-based build
  * Last-modified checking on all pages and resources
  * 'Monitor' functionality - render changed pages automatically
  * Little or no configuration - Convention throughout.

I feel with this release that Rote is starting to 'come of age', and I'd love to know what others think of it, and any suggestions on how it could be improved. You can find us at:

Thanks for the bandwidth,
Ross
