Engines 2.1.0 release

As I’m sure everyone knows, Rails 2.1.0 was released earlier today, and I’m pleased to say that the engines plugin has been keeping quietly up to date with the changes. Many of the improvements in Rails 2.1.0 have made the plugin simpler, most notably the refactoring of ActionView (see ActionView::TemplateFinder, for example). Thanks to everyone who’s contributed to this release so far; there are plenty of improvements that I’ve yet to integrate!

You can grab a compatible version of the plugin straight from github :

script/plugin install git://github.com/lazyatom/engines.git

Or, direct access to the 2.1.0 tag, in fancier git parlance:

cd vendor/plugins
git clone git://github.com/lazyatom/engines.git
git checkout 2.1.0

If you’re using SVN, do any of these instead (although I’m not sure how often I’ll be keeping that up to date)

script/plugin install engines
svn checkout http://svn.rails-engines.org/engines/tags/rel_2.1.0

As ever, feedback and bug reports are very welcome!
