The Apache MINA project team is proud to announce the release of Apache
MINA, a Java network application framework, version 1.0.2.

Apache MINA (Multipurpose Infrastructure for Network Applications) is a
network application framework which helps users develop network applications
easily by providing abstractions of network and protocol I/O layers. The Apache
MINA project website (mina.apache.org) <http://mina.apache.org/> includes
resources such as introductory presentation slides and examples to help you
learn MINA as soon as possible.
