JsonFx v1.0.0906.2823 Released

[Stephen McKamey]

Apologies for not sending out notices of updates recently. Life has
been busy but incremental improvements and bugs fixes have been fairly
regular for JsonFx.

Here is a compiled list of all changes since the previous update. As
you can see there are some really good improvements. If you are still
running an older version, you should consider updating. Backwards
compatibility has been a fairly high priority so try it out. And feel
free to post questions here if any issues arise.

The last few months have been brought performance improvements,
increased flexibility, improved compatibility with jQuery, as well the
the usual IE bug fixes and work-arounds.

(simplifies "switcher" template syntax)

- lifted restriction on name parameter in jbst:control, can be any
valid expression
- subtle change in calling of functions when used as expressions:
passing along "this" context
