[digester] action items for 1.4 release

here's my list of things which need doing. anyone have anything to add?

release notes
=============

i'll go through the commits and assemble some release notes.

bugs
====

#12997 Call the method as soon as the last parameter is encountered
-------------------------------------------------------------------

this is a bit involved and doesn't seem to have an obvious solution. i'd 
be happy to mark this as LATER

(http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12997)

#16413 XML interface for Digester.addCallParam(...
--------------------------------------------------

i was hoping that i might be able to persuade the reporter to submit a 
patch and maybe encourage them to patch up the rest of the xml stuff at 
the same time. i'd like to give the plan a little more time by marking 
this as LATER but i'd understand it if others thing this should be fixed.

(http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16413)


#16350 Wildcard matching with "/*"
----------------------------------

i've commented on this enhancement request and i've assigned it to myself.
  after a lot of thought, i think that adding this to ExtendedBaseRules 
just before a release is too risky. i'd like to mark this as LATER and 
then add this functionality after the release.

My plan is to not implement the suggested change, because it would totally
screw up backwards compatibility.  The only reason I left the bug report
open is that I promised to add a unit test to illustrate the current
behavior (in a manner compatible with the way that things like Tomcat and
Struts use it), so that the person proposing the report could try to
produce a patch to meet their needs that still works for existing users.

+1 on persuasion.

I think we should just go with what we have.  1.4 is long overdue.
