There are quite few changes in this latest update to 1.0 branch, so I will list and comment on them all.

• BeanFormWidget.readBean() method destroyed the content of sub-beans when writing nested form to a bean. This was both counterintuitive and wrong because the root bean and the child beans were handled differently (root bean fields were only updated, but child beans always created anew). This has been fixed
• As the naming of BeanFormWidget.readBean() was very confusing, this method is now deprecated in favour of writeToBean(). Analogously, BeanFormWidget.writeBean() is deprecated in favour of readFromBean(). BeanFormWidget‘s readBean() and writeBean() will be removed in 1.1 branch.
• TcdAndTldMerger utility that was distributed only in source form and had to be compiled separately is now included in aranea.jar. Its purpose and usage are documented here.
