iBATIS for Java 2.2.0 Released (Status: Beta)

[Clinton Begin <cl...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

iBATIS 2.2.0 is released.  The website will be updated as soon as the Apache
servers propogate the site changes.

So that you don't have to wait, here's the "press release"...

------------------
This is probably the most significant iBATIS 2.x release in at least a year.
If you haven't upgraded in a while, this would be the one to go for. This
update includes 25 new minor features 15 bug fixes and 3 new major features
including support for Oracle cursors, multiple result sets and private bean
properties. This is also the first release that requires JDK 1.4 (as voted
nearly a year ago).
------------------

The full changelog is below (as well as included with the distribution).
And so you don't have to wait for the download...

Cheers,
Clinton

PS: A vote to move to GA will follow in a separate email.

Under the ASF guidelines, we do need the PMC to approve any and all
"releases". So, there may be a tagged build available, but we need at
least three binding votes from PMC members to call it a "release".

* http://apache.org/dev/release.html

The ASF takes "releases" seriously, even something tagged as a "beta"
release. If the bits deserve to be a "release", then there there
should be at least three PMC members who agree.
