batik-1.1rc4 Developer Build Available

[Vincent Hardy <vi...@sun.com>]

Hello!

Batik 1.1rc4 is available with performance improvements and lots of 
bug fixes. Even though we had said that the rc3 was the last developer
build before the final 1.1 release, the team thought it was better to 
have another developer release before the final 1.1 because of the 
large number of performance improvements and bug fixes. 

Note that there are two new contributions from Henri Ruini
(a rewrite of the SVG rasterizer) and Paul Evenblij (SVG generator
image handling improvements).

Note also that the number of tests in the automated regression test 
suite has greatly improved (over 630 tests now).

The new build is available at:

1. Binary distribution: 
   http://xml.apache.org/batik/dist/batik-1.1rc4.zip

2. Source distribution:
   http://xml.apache.org/batik/dist/batik-src-1.1rc4.zip

The README on the download page recaps the changes in the various 
developer releases since 1.0beta1. 

If you'd like to report bugs or request API changes/improvements, you
can either post to the developer list or enter a bug in Bugzilla under
the Batik project at:

http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/

Thanks.
Vincent Hardy, for the Batik Team.
