[ANNOUNCE] Apache Accumulo 1.5.4 released

[Josh Elser <el...@apache.org>]

The Apache Accumulo project is happy to announce its 1.5.4 release.

Version 1.5.4 is the most recent bug-fix release in its 1.5.x release
line. This version includes a fix for a data-loss bug over previous 
versions in addition to other minor bug fixes. Existing users of 1.5.x 
are encouraged to upgrade to this version immediately. New users are 
still encouraged to start with a 1.6 or 1.7 release.

The Apache Accumulo sorted, distributed key/value store is a robust,
scalable, high performance data storage system that features cell-based
access control and customizable server-side processing.  It is based on
Google's BigTable design and is built on top of Apache Hadoop,
Apache Zookeeper, and Apache Thrift.

The release is available at http://accumulo.apache.org/downloads/ and
