MooTools Core 1.4.5 is a maintenance release for the 1.4 branch.

1.4.5 brings a critical bugfix for Fx.CSS which caused many troubles for tweening and morphing your element styles. The bug was caused by a fix in 1.4.4 which should improve animating other length units like % or em (see #2160. Many of you noticed the bug and filled bugreports and also helped us testing this new release.

We have improved our tests and are planning to freeze the code for a new release for a longer period so we can gather more feedback to prevent potential regressions. If you’re interested in testing a new release in your application, you can ping us on IRC (#mootools on freenode.net), Twitter (@mootools / @astolwijk) or in the MooTools User Group.

Today we release MooTools Core 1.4.4 which is a critical maintenance release. 1.4.3 release introduced a bug as a result of fixing another bug. Specifically, 1.4.3 did not allow custom attributes (e.g. data- or non-standard attributes). See this issue for a full explanation and solution.

We recommend that all users upgrade to 1.4.4 as soon as possible.

Today we release MooTools Core 1.4.3 which is a small maintenance release. Upgrading from 1.4.2 should not cause any backward incompatibilities. We recommend that all users upgrade to 1.4.3 as soon as possible.

The MooTools team is very happy to announce a simultaneous update of both Core and More repositories. The past year was amazing for us. We had a great hackathon in London, we gave you MooTools 1.3, added a lot of new people to our team and improved everything around the code. The results of the MooTools survey clearly showed that we are doing the right things and we intend to make MooTools even better in 2011. We spent the past weeks fixing bugs and adding new features on both projects. This is what’s new:

Changes

• Lots (and by that I mean LOTS) of documentation improvements, clarifications and cleanups
• Updated Slick to 1.1.5 and improved the speed of our Slick selector engine
• Added delegation support for submit, focus, blur, reset, change and select events in MooTools More
• If available the native JSON methods are now used in JSON.decode and JSON.encode
• Multiple Pseudos click:relay(a):once (demo)
• Two new pseudo events: :throttle and :pause
• Added String.truncate to String.Extras in More
• More than two hundred changes to increase the stability of both Core & More

I am also pleased to announce our newest addition to the MooTools More team, Jacob Thornton, who is a great developer, currently working for Twitter. He has put a substantial amount of work into making MooTools More even better.
