[ANNOUNCE] ApacheDS 2.0.0-M19 released

[Emmanuel Lecharny <el...@apache.org>]

The Apache Directory team is pleased to announce the release of
ApacheDS 2.0.0-M19, the 19th milestone towards a 2.0 version.

Note that this milestone is a security fix above 2.0.0-M18, which has
not been announced.

ApacheDS is an extensible and embeddable directory server entirely
written in Java, which has been certified LDAPv3 compatible by the
Open Group. Besides LDAP it supports Kerberos 5 and the Change
Password Protocol. It has been designed to introduce triggers, stored
procedures, queues and views to the world of LDAP which has lacked
these rich constructs.

This release fixes many critical bugs.


Here is the release note for Apache Directory ApacheDS 2.0.0-M19:
