- <release id="20051026.1" product="HiveMind 1.1">
- <p> The final 1.1 release of the <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/hivemind/">HiveMind</a> services and
- configuration microkernel has been released. </p>
- <p> HiveMind is an inversion-of-control container that mixes in a powerful approach to modularization and
- configuration. It is ideally suited for building richly extensible frameworks. <a
- href="http://jakarta.apache.org/tapestry/">Tapestry 4.0</a> is built on HiveMind. HiveMind overlaps
- in functionality with the very popular <a href="http://springframework.org/">Spring</a> framework, but
- offers a significant number of its own wrinkles ... and integrates <em>very</em> cleanly with Spring. </p>
- <p>Release 1.1 offers a significant number of improvements over 1.0. A few highlights:</p>
- <ul>
- <li> Services and configurations may now be private to a module, and not directly accessible from other
- modules. </li>
- <li> Lightweight initialization allows properties of an object instance to be configured without having
- to make the object a full-fledged service. </li>
- <li> The locale is now tracked on a per-thread basis, and may be changed at any time. </li>
- <li> Services may now be defined in terms of a Java <em>class</em>, not a Java <em>interface</em>. </li>
- <li>
- <a href="http://groovy.codehaus.org/">Groovy</a> may be used, instead of XML, to define services and
- configurations. </li>
- <li> Modules may define a package; class names appearing in the XML may omit that package. </li>
- <li> Streamlined XML with much smarter defaults for many attributes. </li>
- <li> Support for <a href="http://aopalliance.sourceforge.net/">AOP Alliance</a> style method
- interception. </li>
- <li> Services may now be exposed via JMX for remote control, and to monitor performance. </li>
- <li> Much improved auto-wiring of services implementations, including automatic dependency injection via
- constructor parameters. </li>
- <li> Support for building services around the Gang Of Four Strategy and Chain of Command patterns. </li>
- <li> Configurations data may now be injected as a Map rather than a List, by defining the attribute used
- as a key. </li>
- <li> Conditional contribution, controlled by the presence (or absence) of classes, or JVM system
- properties. </li>
- <li> Service proxies may now be serialized and deserialized. </li>
- <li> HiveDoc has been improved, both in content and in presentation. </li>

- <p> The latest beta release of <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/tapestry/">Tapestry 4.0</a> is now
- available. Tapestry is a component based web application framework that provides lots of functionality
- with minimal Java coding, and creates an environment that supports high levels of reuse. This is another
- a bug fix release, building on the <a href="#20050908.1">beta-6 release</a>. This release continues to
- fill in missing component documentation, and improved error reporting in a number of areas. Further,
- component types may now include slashes (to allow organizing them into folders, in the same way that
- pages can be organized). Class names of managed beans may now be abbreviated, much like the way page and
- component class names may be abbreviated. A full listing of bug fixes is available in the <a
- href="http://jakarta.apache.org/tapestry/changes.html">change log</a>. </p>

- <p> The Turbine team has decided to do some actual software paleontology and do a release of the long
- standing Turbine 2.3.x component layer called "Stratum". This release is intended as a closure to
- replace all the alpha and beta versions floating around. There is no further development beyond the 1.0
- version planned. </p>
- <p> Turbine Stratum is distributed as binary including all documentation and as a source distribution. The

- release were improvements to client-side JavaScript, including client-side input validation. The way
- Tapestry forms client-side element ids is now XHTML conformant (no use of the dollar sign, no leading
- underscores). The Form component has a new listener parameter, success, that is only invoked when

- <p> The RDC Taglib Project Team is pleased to announce that the RDC Taglib Project has graduated from
- Taglibs-Sandbox and joined Taglibs-Proper. The RDC sources, the RDC nightly build and the RDC website
- have moved accordingly; and a new RDC component has been added to the Taglibs section of bugzilla. <br/>

- <item id="20050801.1" title="Right Commons-Cli 1.0 Jar Now In Java Repository">
- <p> For many months, the Apache java repository has contained an unofficial snapshot named commons-cli-1.0
- rather than the official 1.0 release. This jar has been mirrored to ibiblio and made available through
- <a href="http://maven.apache.org">Maven</a> as commons-cli-1.0. I'd like to extend apologies to you
- all on behalf of the Jakarta team for this mistake. Sorry. </p>
- <p> The existing jar has now been replaced by the official 1.0 release. (This change may take several hours
- to work it's way through to the mirrors.) Maven users who use commons-cli directly or indirectly may be
- effected by this change. It is recommended that maven users should wait 24 hours (to allow the mirrors
- to sync) and then delete the version of commons-cli in their local repository. They should then rebuild
- and retest their code. It is recommended that all who can should switch to use the official release. </p>
- <p> There is a small risk that some code may be broken by this change. However, is no reason to suspect that
- the original jar has been tampered with: it is just wrongly named. For those who require it, it is
- available as commons-cli-20040117.000000 from <a
- href="http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/commons-cli/jars/commons-cli-20040117.000000.jar">ibiblio</a>.
- Some users may need to update their project.xml to use this version (rather than the official release). </p>

- Jakarta Commons. </p>

- (RDC) is a framework for creating JSP taglibs that aid in rapid development of voice and multimodal

- interface for visual Web applications that are implemented using server-side application frameworks such
- as Struts. Over time, the effort involved in such HTML generation has been reduced by the availability
- of various JSP tag libraries that abstract away the minutiae of HTML markup. The goal of the RDC project
- is to achieve for voice applications what JSP tag libraries have already achieved in the world of visual
- Web applications. </p>

+ <p> The final 1.1 release of the <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/hivemind/">HiveMind</a> services and
+ configuration microkernel has been released. </p>
+ <p> HiveMind is an inversion-of-control container that mixes in a powerful approach to modularization and
+ configuration. It is ideally suited for building richly extensible frameworks. <a
+ href="http://jakarta.apache.org/tapestry/">Tapestry 4.0</a> is built on HiveMind. HiveMind overlaps
+ in functionality with the very popular <a href="http://springframework.org/">Spring</a> framework, but
+ offers a significant number of its own wrinkles ... and integrates <em>very</em> cleanly with Spring. </p>
+ <p>Release 1.1 offers a significant number of improvements over 1.0. A few highlights:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li> Services and configurations may now be private to a module, and not directly accessible from other
+ modules. </li>
+ <li> Lightweight initialization allows properties of an object instance to be configured without having
+ to make the object a full-fledged service. </li>
+ <li> The locale is now tracked on a per-thread basis, and may be changed at any time. </li>
+ <li> Services may now be defined in terms of a Java <em>class</em>, not a Java <em>interface</em>. </li>
+ <li>
+ <a href="http://groovy.codehaus.org/">Groovy</a> may be used, instead of XML, to define services and
+ configurations. </li>
+ <li> Modules may define a package; class names appearing in the XML may omit that package. </li>
+ <li> Streamlined XML with much smarter defaults for many attributes. </li>
+ <li> Support for <a href="http://aopalliance.sourceforge.net/">AOP Alliance</a> style method
+ interception. </li>
+ <li> Services may now be exposed via JMX for remote control, and to monitor performance. </li>
+ <li> Much improved auto-wiring of services implementations, including automatic dependency injection via
+ constructor parameters. </li>
+ <li> Support for building services around the Gang Of Four Strategy and Chain of Command patterns. </li>
+ <li> Configurations data may now be injected as a Map rather than a List, by defining the attribute used
+ as a key. </li>
+ <li> Conditional contribution, controlled by the presence (or absence) of classes, or JVM system
+ properties. </li>
+ <li> Service proxies may now be serialized and deserialized. </li>
+ <li> HiveDoc has been improved, both in content and in presentation. </li>

+ concurrency that is required by the upcoming Servlet Specification v2.5. In addition to these changes,

+ <p> This release is the last one to be done using the CVS repository at Apache. The Tomcat team is moving to

+ >Apache's repositories page</a>. The move is expected to be complete within the next week. </p>
+ <p> This release is also likely the last one to use the Jakarta pages. As part of Tomcat's move to a
+ top-level project (TLP) at Apache, we will be migrating our content to <a
+ href="http://tomcat.apache.org">http://tomcat.apache.org</a>, which is still under construction at
+ this time. That site will have its own download pages and related information. We will keep the key
+ jakarta URLs intact with redirection, but please keep an eye out and update your bookmarks to
+ http://tomcat.apache.org as/when appropriate. As part of the TLP move, distribution names have changed
+ from jakarta-tomcat-* to apache-tomcat-*, and similar minor branding changes will gradually become
+ visible in the web site and documentation. We thank the Jakarta project for its support over the years,
+ and we will continue collaborating on projects and issues of common interest. </p>

+ <p> For many months, the Apache java repository has contained an unofficial snapshot named commons-cli-1.0
+ rather than the official 1.0 release. This jar has been mirrored to ibiblio and made available through
+ <a href="http://maven.apache.org">Maven</a> as commons-cli-1.0. I'd like to extend apologies to you
+ all on behalf of the Jakarta team for this mistake. Sorry. </p>
+ <p> The existing jar has now been replaced by the official 1.0 release. (This change may take several hours
+ to work it's way through to the mirrors.) Maven users who use commons-cli directly or indirectly may be
+ effected by this change. It is recommended that maven users should wait 24 hours (to allow the mirrors
+ to sync) and then delete the version of commons-cli in their local repository. They should then rebuild
+ and retest their code. It is recommended that all who can should switch to use the official release. </p>
+ <p> There is a small risk that some code may be broken by this change. However, is no reason to suspect that
+ the original jar has been tampered with: it is just wrongly named. For those who require it, it is
+ available as commons-cli-20040117.000000 from <a
+ href="http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/commons-cli/jars/commons-cli-20040117.000000.jar">ibiblio</a>.
+ Some users may need to update their project.xml to use this version (rather than the official release). </p>
