Stop downloading Seam 1.1.0!
I just noticed that of the 1630 downloads of Seam since the release of 1.1.1 on Thursday, only 666 were of Seam 1.1.1. So I must have somehow fluffed the release announcement. (PST is a horrible timezone for announcing things.)
Hibernate Tools goes to the movies

PDF views in Seam
In Seam 1.1.1 a PDF view is just like any other page in the application: a facelets template containing EL expressions that bind values from the underlying Seam components onto the page. So if you already know Seam, producing PDF just involves learning the new iText-specific tags.

Seam 1.1 finally reaches GA
This morning I uploaded a GA release of Seam 1.1. For those who've been following the development of Seam 1.1, there is not much new in this compared to the two CR releases. The only significant improvements compared to CR2 are that we now have the Hibernate and JPA example applications running out of the box on WebLogic (as well as JBoss, GlassFish and Tomcat), a number of enhancements to seam-gen, and a nice built-in datepicker control.
