Hi folks --
I've just released these. Change logs are below. Note that the EtText
release adds no features; it just makes it CPAN compliant, so those of you
who already have Text::EtText 1.1 installed, no need to get 1.2.
WebMake's a different matter though. 1.2 is much faster ;)

WebMake changes:
- major, major changes for partial site rebuilds, due to fixing a
pretty basic dependency-tracking bug. oops. It's a **LOT**
faster now.
- WebMake is generally faster at building indices and sitemaps
after a bit of rearchitecture to separate metadata content from
normal content items.
- unfortunately, IO::String module is now required to use the
<{perlout}> tag; otherwise it runs into a deadlock on Linux :(
- <metatable> tag extended to support XML input, and load from
external sources using the "src" attribute.
- added <navtree> plugin from Jan Hudec.
- added "webmake.cgi" code, for an edit-in-browser CGI script. It
doesn't quite work yet ;)
- media items now also create content items, allowing metadata to
be tagged to them.
- revised the documentation a little, documented <cache> and
<option> webmake tags.
- the modules were not quite CPAN-compliant. this is now fixed.
EtText changes:
- the modules were not quite CPAN-compliant. this is now fixed.
