Slide 1.0.12 released

Hi,

I've packaged a new alpha release of Slide. It can be downloaded (as well as
the source code) from the release page :
http://jakarta.apache.org/slide/release.html

This release contains a lot of fixes for bugs and WebDAV inetroperability
issues which were found during extensive testing. The changelog is :
* Performance fix in PROPFIND, which reduces a lot the number of queries
needed when doing a PROPFIND with depth = 1 (Nelis Bijl)
* Packaging error in 1.0.11 : the web.xml included in slide.war was
incorrect (a parameter was missing) (Nelis Bijl)
* The PROPFIND depth limit can now be configured separately in each instance
of the WebDAV servlet, instead of being a global parameter (CL)
* Add additional commands to manipulate ACLs in the command line client
(grant, deny, revoke) (DV)
* Major update to the UI components (MS, JT)
* Reorganize code of COPY and MOVE to minimize code duplication (JP)
* Allow modifying the displayname property using a PROPPATCH (JP)
* Fix WebDAV compliance bugs where status code were always wrapped inside a
207 (JP, RM)
* Draft of the indexing / searching API (RM)
* Update WebDAV Access Control Protocol Support to the 06 draft (DV)
* Finish implementing lock handling in the client (RM)
* Remove transparent multi-connection handling from the client; it makes the
client thread safe (RM)
* Namespace support in the client for PROPFIND (DV, RM, Derek Libby)
* Cleanup of the namespace handling in the WebDAV servlet, using DOM2 (RM)
* Upgrade to Tomcat 4.0 beta 6 (RM)
* DELETE, MOVE, COPY and LOCK now extend a common class which is in charge
of generating the 207 error reports (JP, RM)
* Reorganize the code responsible for generating the directory browsing
pages (CL)
* Add a flag to disable directory browsing page generation (CL)
