UnCommon Web version 0.3.3 - learning to climb up bookshelves (for real)

* Changes (since 0.3.2)

** "The API has changed" fixes

- Fix various uses of <ucw:a which didn't use the :action attribute.

- Fix wrong environment name in admin repl template

** Components

- New component simple-container

- root-component renamed to window-component

  and replace-component methods). Use (setf context.window-component)
  instead (passing it a component instance).

** YACLML 

- Support :href attribute an <ucw:a tags with URL rewriting to add
  the session id.

** RERL

- Move *debug-on-error* logic out of the handle-request-error's
  :around method and into the standard-server's handle-request method.

- Improved the handling of errors during actions, callbacks and rerl
  internal functions.

* Known Issues

- The transaction example does not work.

* Supported Platforms

SBCL and OpenMCL are known to work on PPC with the mod_lisp backend.
CMUCL is known to work on x86 with mod_lisp backend (apache2).

The aserve backend is not known to work (it might, it just hasn't been
tested).

Ring the bells that still can ring.
Forget your perfect offering.
There is a crack in everything.
That's how the light gets in.
