News8.2.2010Release 0.8.0 is ready! Some big changes and features made it into this release: Binary/B is available and test/assert modules are now also CommonJS compatible. v8cgi now builds on Mac, features the "global.v8cgi" free variable, supports multiple MySQL queries. A new DOM module was introduced.
Windows binary is compiled without Context reusing, as this feature is still somewhat problematic. Also, the XDOM (Xerces-based DOM) module is not included in Windows release. Use the JS DOM module instead.
