Pebble 2.2 available

Pebble 2.2 has been released and you can download it from SourceForge here. Changes include the following.

Added a generic sidebar item (<sidebar:item/>). Blog entry titles are now shown on the requests page, rather than the permalink.
Key events on blog entries, comments and TrackBacks (addition, removal, etc) are now recorded in an audit log (./pebble-audit.log, configurable in the /WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties file).
The original author details of the blog entry are now retained when the blog entry is edited by somebody else.
Added user maintainable profile information to user details.
Added an "about author" sidebar component (<sidebar:aboutAuthor/>) that displays the profile information associated with the author of a blog entry, when viewing that blog entry on its permalinked page.
Added support for custom favicon.ico files (place a favicon.ico file at /images/favicon.ico).
Added an aboutAuthor page that displays profile information for the author of a blog entry. This is the default link used in the "Posted by ..." blog entry metadata if a user doesn't explicitly provide a website in their user details.

Support for the Atom Publishing Protocol didn't make it in this release but it will be coming.

Simon... I love pebble, i recently rebuilt my server and the first app i loaded was pebble... I then followed the following article on how to use apache with glassfish ( http://weblogs.java.net/blog/jfarcand/archive/2006/03/running_glassfi_1.html ) and now glassfish crashes.... the error looks like " vError configuring application listener of class pebble.listener.PebbleContextListener java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance0(Native Method) any ideas where to start this... i think it might have something to do with the introduction of commons-logging.jar to glassfish... ps help..
