Slick 2.0.0-RC1

We have just released Slick 2.0.0-RC1. It should show up on Maven Central within the next few hours. You can find the source code here: https://github.com/slick/slick/tree/2.0.0-RC1. Please see http://slick.typesafe.com/docs/ for documentation.

These are the major new features added since M3:

• Added a code generator that reverse-engineers the database schema and generates all code requires for working with Slick.

• Updated documentation with further updates expected before 2.0.0 final.

The Slick Examples, Slick Testkit Example projects have been updated as well. The Slick Extensions package has been updated and is expected to show up on Maven Central within a few days.

This is the first release candidate for Slick 2.0.0. Please submit tickets or contact us on the mailing list regarding any issues you encounter, so we can fix them for the final release.
