Vaadin 6.3 is approaching. Meanwhile, the prerelease version includes most of the new features, such as the long-waited Drag-and-Drop. We are stabilizing the new features, possibly adding some more, and fixing some bugs. Also API changes to the new features are possible before the final release - please comment especially the Drag-and-Drop API.
Vaadin 6.3.0 will be a significant update release for Vaadin 6.2, with of number of features as well as bug fixes. See the
