ANN: CherryPy 3.0.0 beta

[Christian Wyglendowski]

On behalf of the CherryPy team, I'm happy to announce the release of
CherryPy 3.0.0 beta.  It is the product of many shared ideas, submitted
tickets and contributed code (most contributed by Robert Brewer, who is
heading up the development of CherryPy 3).

To download the release, visit
http://www.cherrypy.org/wiki/CherryPyDownload .

This release features numerous improvements to performance, functionality
and interoperability.  Some highlights:

   * Faster than 2.2.x (as much as 3 times in benchmarks!).
   * More powerful and flexible configuration.
   * Tools replace filters and allow for greater flexibility.
   * Autoreload no longer spawns two instances of your web application.
   * Logging uses the stdlib logging module.
   * Numerous WSGI interoperability improvements.
   * The built in WSGI server is fully HTTP/1.1 compliant!!
   * Built-in support for mod_python.
   * Built-in support for object and HTTP method dispatchers.
   * Customizable dispatcher (allows plugging in external dispatchers like
Routes).
