Description

It would be very useful to have access to an instance of ConversionTool in the Velocity templace so that one can convert String to List for example.

See : http://velocity.apache.org/tools/devel/javadoc/org/apache/velocity/tools/generic/ConversionTool.html

In my special case, I want to pass a list of packages as a comma-separated String in the announceParameters as configuration of the changes plugin and convert this comma-separated String as a List in the Velocity template to iterate over to send e-mails containing the packages I deployed in addition to the changes report.
