script.aculo.us 1.7.1 beta 2 for your download pleasure

There’s a brand new 1.7.1 beta 2 release of script.aculo.us.

In script.aculo.us itself there have been only two small bug fixes for the autocompleting code since beta 1, but the main reason to get this release out is the included Release candidate 4 of Prototype 1.5.1, which has lots and lots of overall improvements, performance tweaks and some cool new features.

So, go ahead and download script.aculo.us 1.7.1 beta 2.

More stuff is up ahead, and I hope some of it will make it in before my RailsConf tutorial—let’s see!

Beta warning: Things might not work as you might expect, though they really should—if you hit any problems, please use the bug tracker and give reports. The same that applies to Prototype applies for script.aculo.us too, so read the how to contribute page to see how you can help out here!
