A great deal of work has been done since the 1.6 branch.
1.6까지는 여러가지 작업들을 진행해왔습니다.  

Here's a taste:
- Your macros can now be called with bodies when you want:
    #macro(foo)Here is $bodyContent#end
    #@foo()body content!#end

- Quotes can be escaped in strings by doubling them:
    #set( $foo = "$person said, ""$comment"" " )
    #set( $bar = 'Joe said, ''Hi!'' ' )

- The flawed #literal directive has been replaced with:
    #[[ This is included but not parsed, so #if and $foo need no escaping.]]#

Also included are namespacing improvements, better #break and #stop, bracketed index syntax, and more!  For full details, please see the

change log:

This should work as a drop-in replacement for Velocity 1.6.3 in the vast majority of cases.  However, there have been a number of deprecations (should result in warnings in your log output) and a few
minor behavioral changes, all of which are explained in the change log. :)
